Argos Translations Charity Event

September 16th, 2006

On September 11th, Argos Translations sponsored a charity event for the ’Gift of Hope’ Foundation of Krakow’s University’s Children Hospital’s Transplantation Center.

Argos Translations was the gold sponsor of the event and further contributed to the event by donating prizes as well as supported the campaign with financial donations to the Hospital’s foundation. In the end, the event was a success and sparked hope to children overwhelmed by illness.
