Bob Evan's kids meals support troops' families
To celebrate its 50th anniver-
saw, Bob Evans Farms has chosen
to give a gift to the families of
U.S. military troops. Bob Evans
Restaurants across the country on
April 24 donated 50 cents for each
kids' meal sold, to the American
Red Cross Armed Forces Emer-
gency Services (AFES) to support
military families across the coun-
try.
"Bob Evans Farms is synony-
mous with family; we're a family
founded business serving families
for 50 years," said Bob Evans
chairman of the board and chief
executive officer Stewart Owens.
"While we realize that often
birthdays and anniversaries are
celebrated by receiving gifts and
throwing parties, it seemed more
appropriate to us to spend our re-
sources supporting U.S. troops
and their families."
The Red Cross AFES works
with military aid societies, includ-
ing Army Emergency Relief,
Navy Marine Corps Society, Air
Force Aid Society and Coast
Guard Mutual Assistance. These
organizations provide financial
assistance for emergency travel,
food, temporary lodging, urgent
medical needs, help to avoid evic-
tion and utility shut off and other
necessities to service members
and their families as well as re-
tired military personnel and wid-
ows of retired military personnel.
"Though we hope that much of
the combat in Iraq is ending, we
realize that American military
Nascio elects Jarrett as chief
NASCIO's executive commit-
tee recently nominated and elect-
ed Tom Jarrett, chief information
officer for the state of Delaware,
to serve as its vice president for
the 2002-03 program year. Jarrett
replaces Harry Lanphear, who r6"
cently vacated the post upon his
departure as the CIO for the state
of Maine.
"Tom's exceptional background
will be a valuable asset to the vice
presidency role at NASCIO," said
NASCIO president and Missouri
(210 Gerry Wethington. "I am ex-
tremely pleased that Tom has ac-
cepted the executive committee's
nomination. His vision and lead-
ership will contribute greatly to
the association's mission."
As part of sweeping reforms in
how the state manages inform-
talon technology services, Gov.
Ruth Ann Miuner asked Jarrett to
become the state's fwst CIO, head-
ing up the new Department of
Technology and Information, in
September 2001.
• She'has defined the role of the
Chief Information Officer (CIO)
to a cabinet-level position and Jar-
rett has the broad authority that
can be found in the private sector
to insure that technology is de-
ployed on time, on budget and
meets the needs of state agencies
serving Delaware citizens.
Since Jarrett's appointment as
Delaware's CIO, he has been a
dedicated and active member in
the association.
"I am very excited about be-
coming the new vice president of
NASCIO and look forward to
