If you're heading up north to Maine for the long weekend to hit the slopes, keep an eye out for Central Maine Adaptive Sports (CMAS) at Lost Valley. This nonprofit is making skiing, hockey, and more accessible for athletes with disabilities – and for Cameron Macri on PSG’s sourcing team, that mission is personal. Growing up, Cam and his cousin Travis shared a love for sports, but for Travis, who has cerebral palsy and is legally blind, finding opportunities to play was challenging. That changed when he discovered sled hockey through CMAS, giving him the chance to compete and gain independence on the ice. Wanting to give back, Cam shared Travis’s story as part of PSG’s annual Giving Event – and secured $20,000 to help keep CMAS running for the next two years. Hear more about Cam’s story and the impact of this donation in his interview with NEWS CENTER Maine: https://lnkd.in/eA4-DC6x We’re proud to support causes that make a real difference and to celebrate our team members who champion them. #philanthropy
