TestimonialsGiving Back
Over the years we have developed a strong commitment to the community. We have been fortunate enough to build lasting relationships with our clients and their families. Our success as one of the area’s leading firms has allowed us the opportunity to contribute to many charitable associations, not only in our area, but across the country. Whether we’re donating to a food drive, sending gift boxes to our soldiers or making sure the local women’s shelter and children’s home have something for the holidays, the gifts come from our hearts.
We take great pride in being able to give back. If you have a group or association you would like us to consider, please contact us.

American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life
Troy & Collinsville, IL
May 2011
GHAR’s Holly Reese and Pam Steele are participating in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life – a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease.
At Relay for Life, teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Because cancer never sleeps, Relays are overnight events that last up to 24 hours.
You can join Holly or Pam’s team, or make a donation to help the American Cancer Society create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. Together, we can help make sure that cancer never steals another year of anyone’s life!
Pam Steel will be participating at the Relay For Life in Collinsville, IL on Friday, May 13, 2011 at Son Life Church. Support Pam’s team here.
Holly Reese will be participating at the Relay For Life in Troy, IL on Friday, May 20, 2011 at Tri-Township Park. Support Holly’s team here.
The American Cancer Society is rallying communities through events like Relay For Life, to fight back and find cures for this disease. Good luck to Pam and Holly!
