Weiler Abrasives Employees’ Generosity Soars

Weiler Abrasives Group Employees’ Generosity Soars

Company’s employees donate food to Christian Awareness Ministries Ecumenical (C.A.M.E.)

(CRESCO, PA. — May 12, 2021) Employees of Weiler Abrasives Group, the Cresco-based global abrasives manufacturer, have donated nearly a ton-and-a-half of food for neighbors in need. The food drive was led by nine employee teams competing to see which team would donate the most food this spring.

For every 10 pounds donated, the teams at Weiler launched a toy plane from the company’s faux runway (its former receiving dock) in a fun and good-spirited competition to win gift cards and lottery tickets.

The food collected–all 2,900 pounds of it–goes to the Christian Awareness Ministries Ecumenical (C.A.M.E.). Weiler has a history of supporting worthy causes that address poverty alleviation, healthy food access, and other community needs.

“We believe in giving back to our community,” said Marlene Moreno, Weiler executive assistant to CEO & executive team. She added, “This creative way to serve our external community and do some internal team-building was really a win-win.”
