selected from more than 1,100 Chamber business mem- bers throughout the preceding year. The Chamber of Commerce cited community involve- ment, corporate volunteerism, and philanthropic commit- ment as key criteria for Welch Packaging to receive the nod. Welch set a 2019 goal of team members giving back 5,000 hours of community service. In reality, they nearly doubled that amount. “Ever since we started as a small business in 1985, we’ve always strived to make a difference,” said Brock Welch, General Manager of the Elkhart Campus. “We try every day to make a difference in our associates’ lives, in our customers’ businesses and in the communities in which we live. Every single member of our Welch team is important in allowing us to have that impact.” Welch Packaging associates have played significant roles in supporting local charity organizations, elementary and high schools, entrepreneurship programs, and higher education. From building beds for less fortunate children to donating to over 150 other local charities, Welch associ- ates are living the vision set forth by founder Scott Welch. Welch Packaging will be celebrating its 35th anniver- sary in April, a noteworthy accomplishment among local businesses. With a focus on customer service, training and development, and community improvement, Welch Pack- aging is looking forward to many more anniversaries.
