“Savannah River Mission Completion wants to be of service to those who have dedicated themselves to the SRS mission for many years,” Burns said. “By supporting SRSRA, SRMC aims to give back to those who have given so much, providing access to vital resources during their retirement years.”
Deb Shedrow, Chair of the SRSRA, expressed her appreciation for SRMC's contribution, emphasizing its positive influence on the company’s ability to serve the retiree community.
“The SRSRA is grateful for SRMC's support of our Resource Center,” Shedrow said. “This partnership empowers our retirees to make informed decisions regarding their health benefits and simplifies the claims process.”
