Texas based mat manufacturer helps make dreams come true by helping to raise $75,000 for local organization shaping positive futures for children.
Beaumont, TX (PRWEB) July 16, 2013
This summer started peachy with $75,000 raised in the annual peaches fundraiser to benefit the Young Life Organization in Southeast Texas. Helping to load peaches wasn’t enough for Quality Mat Company, an access mats manufacturer and regular supporter of local charities, but the organization also purchased peaches to donate a majority to local nursing homes and food banks.
Peaches Fundraiser
The annual peaches fundraiser held in June helps raise money for the Young Life in Southeast Texas organization. For just $50, a person enjoys a crate of fresh, sweet and delicious Georgia Peaches, while the money is used to help fund a variety of events and activities for the Young Life in Southeast Texas organization.
A Company that Cares
Quality Mat Company is proud to participate and support many local charities, taking great pride in making charitable donations to organizations that they truly believe in and also support organizations that are local to Beaumont, Texas.
"Young Life is a great organization," says manager Joe Penland Jr. "It’s nice to see a community being there to help shape the lives of our youth in a very positive way."
Another community focused company, Modern Manufacturing, first involved Quality Mat in the Young Life cause. Quality Mat’s partner in manufacturing rig mats and developing new products, Modern Manufacturing helped to raise money with the peaches fundraiser as well as others in the community. Penland encourages more companies to ‘pass it along’ and make contributions, go the extra mile or help organizations with a local impact, such as Young Life. Not only did Quality Mat purchase 170 cases of peaches to benefit Young Life, but they donated a large majority to local good banks and nursing homes, with the rest going to employees of the family run Quality Mat Company.
