Securus Payments generously donates to the Oregon Fallen Badge Foundation

PORTLAND, OR, April 16, 2013 Securus Payments, a premier merchant services company in the Portland area, is a firm believer in giving back to the community in which they serve, which is why they recently donated $300 to the Oregon Fallen Badge Foundation. The donation was presented on April 26th, 2013, and was given to representative, Crystal Purdy. Owner Steven Lemma and CFO Susan Waters were the presenters of the check.

Crystal states, "Thank you so much, your organization is my hero. I can’t say how much I appreciate it.“

The donation was made possible through the Securus Payments Pay It Forward Program.

"It’s tough in this day and age to get funding for programs that are aimed at helping others. You have a bunch of willing and able people to help, but no money to get them anywhere. Mychol Robirds, President of Securus Payments explains. "I think it's important for companies like ours who have been fortunate to step in and assist those who haven’t. Until the economy gets going, people like us have to step in and be that band aid."

This is the 3rd consecutive year that Securus Payments has donated to charitable contribution. They are proud supporters of their community and are delighted to continue to support the talent and efforts of the Oregon Fallen Badge Foundation.
