“We’re a family here and everybody cares about everybody.” – Connie, Production -Gear Hobber.
On Monday the employees of Groschopp joined together to help several team members battling cancer with a Bake Sale Fundraiser. The idea was conceived when Laura (QA – Incoming Inspector) heard about a friend’s company doing something similar with great success. She felt it would be a valuable way to provide moral and financial support to her coworkers dealing with the effects of cancer. 400 – 500 food and craft items were donated by production and staff members with just over $1000 raised to help defray medical expenses. Laura attributes the success of the sale to the variety of items and the cause itself, “there was something that appealed to everyone.” “The bake sale was something new and there was such a wonderful turnout for a cause that has touched us all.”
