It’s #ThankYouThursday! Please take a few minutes to check out this short blog and help us recognize the following by “liking”, “sharing” and “retweeting”:

Thank you Stryker Corporation! The second largest single contributor to UWBCKR, Stryker exceeded their UWBCKR campaign goal again this year. In addition to the extraordinary generous financial support, Stryker employees actively participate in Day of Caring activities throughout the year, they held a 3-on-3 basketball tournament, and Kevin Lobo, CEO & Chairman of Stryker Corporation, hosted a leadership event at the companies global headquarters in September.

Thank you Denso Manufacturing! One of the UWBCKR $100,000 Club Members, Denso ran another strong campaign this year with employee giving up 4%. The restoration of the full employee match helped bring the total campaign in nearly $50,000 over last year. An active and long-standing participant in the UWBCKR Day of Caring Program, Denso set a new record by packing more than 3,000 weekend packs for the Foodbank of South Central Michigan. Denso received the Campaign Innovation Award in 2013. 

Thank you Great Lakes Companies! Under the continued leadership of John Braganini, the team at Great Lakes Companies generously increased their contributions again this year. A winner of the Trendsetter Award last year, Great Lakes Companies and employees understand and embrace the importance of giving back to help change the story.

Thank you Eaton Corporation! For 100 years, Eaton has been powering our communities in partnership with United Way.
