Pick Systems, a developer of database management software, donated $2,000 Wednesday to Doctors Without Borders, a nonprofit organization that provides medical relief in troubled regions around the world. The donation was made on behalf of Michelle Farooqi, who won the company’s Millennium Bug Contest to design an image of the so-called millennium bug. Farooqi’s victory also earned her an additional $2,000 and an IBM Word Pad personal organizer.

Farooqi chose the organization because the volunteers “really risk their lives to help people throughout the world.” Information: (949) 442-8326.
