SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 11 Jawa is pleased to announce the first recipient of its employee-driven, philanthropic-program 'Jawa Gives' is Donor Network of Arizona (DNA). 'Jawa Gives' allows Jawa employees to nominate individual charities that have positively affected their lives to receive a one-time donation; a different charity being selected each month.
