Company is donating to the ASAS for every registered attendee of select IT security events

SAN JOSE, Calif. — July 7, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — Quorum, the leader in instant disaster recovery and business continuity, has teamed up with the Sonoran Desert Security User Group (SDSUG) to support the American Service Animal Society (ASAS), a nonprofit group dedicated to helping disabled veterans live more productive lives with trained service animals.

The SDSUG is a group of information technology professionals in the Phoenix metro area dedicated to the security of digital systems. During a recent quarterly meeting, more than 100 IT security, data and networking professionals were treated to a memorable presentation by an ASAS certified trainer, accompanied by two disabled veterans and their service dogs.

“I have personally seen how a service dog has a powerful healing impact on a disabled veteran, including improved sleep, decreased startle responses and a decrease in the need for medication,” said Leo J. Hauguel, founder and president of the Sonoran Desert Security User Group. “Together with Quorum, we are proud to recognize the American Service Animal Society, and its mission to help veterans train service dogs.”

“We are delighted and honored to join with the SDSUG in supporting the American Service Animal Society and its vision to improve the lives of individuals through the powerful connection between dogs and humans,” said Sharon Moses, director of marketing at Quorum. “These efforts enable disabled veterans to move closer to the lives they once lived, helping them relearn trust and love and reminding us all of the healing powers of man’s best friend.”
