IRT Receives Ada Jobs Foundation Award
The Ada Oklahoma Jobs Foundation selection committee selected IRT on July 1, 2010 to be honored at their annual banquet on July 8, 2010 in the ECU Stanley P Wagner Ballroom from 6:00 to 8:00 PM CST. IRT will receive the New Business Award which celebrates a new business which started in Ada within the last 3 to 5 years and has made a significant contribution to the economic vitality of the Ada area.
“The citizens and businesses in Ada could not be prouder to have such a caring, employee-oriented company as part of our business community. When IRT made the decision to expand to our community five years ago, no one could have imagined how this company would help transform our community. IRT is dedicated to its employees and the communities in which they reside. IRT has made a significant contribution to the economic vitality of our community and that is why IRT was honored at the 2010 New Business of the Year by the Ada Jobs Foundation,” stated Michael Southard, CEO of Ada Jobs Foundation.
“We are extremely pleased to be recognized by the Ada Jobs Foundation,” stated Richard Eychner, President of IRT. “Even prior to taking our first call in Ada, the community has embraced us and we have and continue to enjoy our partnership with the community.”
