It is always important to be prepared for whatever disaster might be coming your way. Doing routine maintenance checks of your property is important. Making sure gutters are clean to prevent ice dams, raking your snow off your roof in the winter and clipping back any low-hanging tree limbs are just a few ways to keep your property safe. Additionally, it is important to get heaters and AC units checked before using them. 8. What is unique about ARS ? ARS fundraises for two New England based breast cancer foundations; The Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation based out of Pawtucket, RI and the Ellie Fund based out of Needham, MA. ARS hosts three events throughout the year to raise money for these foundations; a Football Pool, a Golf Outing and our signature event is our Annual Casino Night Event. In 2018, ARS was able to raise $750,000 for both organizations through these events and we look forward to growing our success every year. Fundraising for these two breast cancer organizations is near and dear to the ARS community and is an opportunity to give back. Along with fundraising for these two specific organizations ARS also has a Branch Community Service Program where each month one of the ARS Branches volunteers with an organization local to their office. 9.
