On Monday November 15^th, Halcyon Solutions received

The Pillar Award for Community Service Class of 2011.

This award was developed by Smart Business and Medical Mutual to honor businesses and individuals committed to positively impacting and strengthening the community. The Pillar Award program began in Northeast Ohio in 1998 and expanded into central Ohio in 2010 with the inaugural program in January 2010. This award seeks to:

• Publicize the importance of community service issues, such as philanthropy and volunteerism;
• Share creative ideas about how companies have a positive impact in their communities;
• Honor companies and individuals who go beyond the minimum expectation of community service; and
• Build a sustaining fund, administered by The Cleveland Foundation, which provides grants for local nonprofit organizations in their mission to serve the people of Northeast Ohio (The Pillar Fund).

“We are honored to recognize Halcyon Solutions as a member of the Pillar Award class of 2011. The company's commitment to supporting the community where its employees, customers and vendors live and work is a great example of what happens when giving back is part of an organization's core values."  - Dustin S. Klein, Executive Editor, Smart Business.

“Social responsibility is a key aspect of our company’s vision statement and core values. Here at Halcyon our vision is to be recognized as a premier IT business solution provider and the most socially responsible organization…equally!” – Mohan Viddam, President, Halcyon Solutions, Inc.
