What's Happening?
Stoneco of Michigan, a subsidiary of CRH, has successfully raised over $450 for Little Blessings Outreach, a veteran-owned organization in Ottawa Lake, Michigan. The funds were collected through a holiday employee raffle, where employees purchased tickets
to win company items. Little Blessings Outreach, founded by veteran Jamie Paxton, provides resources to help veterans transition back into civilian life, offering support not only to veterans but also to their families. Stoneco operates multiple limestone quarries and sand and gravel operations in Michigan, and this initiative reflects their commitment to community support.
Why It's Important?
The fundraising effort by Stoneco highlights the importance of corporate social responsibility, particularly in supporting veterans who face challenges transitioning to civilian life. By contributing to Little Blessings Outreach, Stoneco is helping to provide essential resources and support systems for veterans and their families. This initiative not only aids in the reintegration of veterans but also strengthens community ties and sets a precedent for other businesses to engage in similar philanthropic activities. The support for veteran-owned organizations can lead to improved mental health, job opportunities, and overall well-being for veterans.
