Archer Hits the Target

Posted by Rick Hosmer on June 03 2009| 3 Comments

Yesterday, at the Greater Spokane Incorporated 2009 AGORA Awards honoring business excellence, Klündt | Hosmer received the very special, C. Michael Archer Community Service Award.

Greater Spokane Incorporated had this to say about the honor: “Klündt | Hosmer's contribution to great community causes clearly comes from their hearts - they take pride in helping to make Spokane a better place to live and work. In 2008, the company donated more than $75,000 in services to more than 16 groups and events.

“Klündt | Hosmer provides branding and visual communication services in print, web and interactive.  The company's creative team has produced thousands of visual communication projects, won hundreds of professional awards, and has experience in a wide-range of industries.”

Darin thanks the AGORA crowd.

The awards event was held at the Davenport Hotel and was attended by several hundred community and city business leaders. The winners were selected by an independent team of volunteer judges for the AGORA program, which recognizes businesses in our community and region who exemplify leadership to support a strong economy and quality of life. An extensive documentation and interview process was required before the judges made their decision to award Klündt | Hosmer this honor.

Klündt | Hosmer was a finalist in the medium-sized business category in 1998 and was a finalist again this year. The C. Michael Archer Community Service Award took us by surprise, and it is an honor to be recognized for our commitment to regional causes benefiting the arts, education, the underprivileged and disabled. First Night Spokane, Big Brothers and Sisters of the Inland Northwest, Greater Spokane Incorporated, The Rypien Foundation, and Logan Magazine are among the causes that we have helped in the past year.

We want to thank the judges, Greater Spokane Incorporated and the Spokane business community for this honor. We couldn’t continue to provide this pro bono design work for these deserving organizations without the support of our clients.

All of us at Klündt | Hosmer will continue to operate in the spirit of the C. Michael Archer Community Service Award.

  • Darin—
    It was apparent that you, Jean and Rick were surprised. I suspect that you were the only ones, because you are known for being committed to the community and to helping those in need. We just had the opportunity to convey—through an award—that message. Power clap for the Klundt Hosmer Team.

  • Well deserved you guys... as one of those people that has greatly benefitted from your generosity assisting not-for-profit organizations compete in the big creative world- you guys rock! You have always been so very generous with your time and talents to help the non-profit world as they aspire to compete with the corporate world. I am personally and professionally so very proud of all of you. Love Joyce

  • Dear Darin and the Klundt Hosmer team,

    Congrats from all of us at Moloney+O'Neill for receiving the C. Michael Archer Community Service Award. Mike was a great Edgar Allan Poe fan and did so much to further the community service during his tenure with the Spokane Area Chamber of Commerce. He also did so much for the Arts in the greater Spokane community.

    I work with L&S Engineering, which is located in the same building with you. I stopped by the other day and left some info about our employee benefits consulting services. We work with Logan Olson's dad, Tim, on their company's health & welfare benefits. You have been a huge blessing to Logan in helping get her magazine launched.

    All the best,

    Mark
