Cannon & Wendt Electric Co., one of the leading electrical service firms in the Valley, recently hosted its third annual Supporting Our Heroes event, raising $41,508 to benefit the 100 Club of Arizona. Proceeds from this year’s event will help send children to the 100 Club of Arizona’s Survivor Children’s Camp in Prescott, Arizona, along with purchase more wash-down kits and PPE to make sure families are taken care of and public safety servants remain healthy.
Cannon & Wendt’s support of first responders began when Albert Wendt, one of the firm’s founders, invited the Phoenix Police Department to use Cannon & Wendt’s office as a facility for training narcotic-detecting K-9s. This connection led the company to support the 100 Club, which provides immediate financial assistance to families of public safety officers and first responders who are seriously injured or killed in the line of duty.
