(San Antonio, Texas) - Seventy-five percent of ZCC’s employees contributed to the company’s 2004-05 United Way campaign, despite a challenging economy, a record number of devastating hurricanes in the southeast and lower employment numbers.

“Once again, the family of Zachry employees has stepped up and put its money where its heart is, recognizing the importance of helping others even during tough times,” said Senior Vice President of Corporate Business Development and 2004-05 Campaign Chair Keith Manning. “It’s a testament not only to the Zachry culture, but to the commitment—at all levels of the organization—to help others.”

Employee pledges totaled $1.2 million—$2.4 million with the corporate match—and will benefit as many as 130 different United Way agencies across 21 states and in Puerto Rico, Cambodia and the Philippines.

Projects with Field Volunteer Contribution Committees will use 25 percent of corporate matching dollars to contribute to local projects in their respective communities
