We are pleased to announce our support of the Big Moo Canoe for Heifer International and the Food Bank for Larimer County. Our interactive director, Rob Bean, has organized a team from across the country for an ambitious challenge this summer. The project's team members will use their passion for ultra-marathon canoe racing to help raise awareness and donations for two organizations helping to end poverty and hunger.

This year, the team has several events planned, but their focus is competing together in the 340-mile, Missouri River 340. This race will take them across the state of Missouri in 88 hours or less while competing against more than 600 paddlers. Their participation will help build awareness of Heifer International and raise needed funds to support projects around the globe. Burns Marketing has provided marketing support for Rob's Moo Canoe project for the past three years.

"We feel our firm has an important role to play by supporting our employees as they reach out into the community and give back," explained Mike Burns, president and CEO of Burns Marketing Communications. "Rob has developed a tremendous program with national reach and has experienced great success over the years. Our organization is proud to be a part of this exciting project, and we wish the team the best in their effort this summer."
