MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Employees from ARS/Rescue Rooter, a privately-held national provider of air conditioning, heating and plumbing services, recently donated $80,000 to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  Throughout 2018, locations within the ARS/Rescue Rooter Network are supporting the St. Jude mission through monetary donations and volunteerism.  Programs include a $1 donation for new "Likes" on local branch Facebook pages and a $25 donation for new residential HVAC system installations (up to a maximum total donation of $200,000).  In addition, these locations have, and will continue to offer, both their employees and customers the opportunity to donate directly to St. Jude.
