On Sunday, May 15th The Conti Group participated in the 2011 Susan G. Komen North Jersey Race for the Cure in West Orange, NJ for the fourth consecutive year.  Conti was a corporate sponsor and part of the 7,400 supporters that helped raise over $1.4 Million for breast cancer prevention, treatment and research. Additionally, Conti employees volunteered significant time to assist with the planning and organization of the entire event. The company has had a long history of giving back to the communities in which they live and work.
