Henry Schein Supports The ‘Carry The Load’ Memorial May Campaign For Third Consecutive Year

Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC) today announced that for the third consecutive year it is supporting the Carry The Load Memorial May campaign, a month-long Memorial Day awareness program providing active ways to connect Americans to the sacrifices made by the U.S. military, veterans, first responders, and their families.
