Gratitude And Giving (CONT’D FROM PAGE 18)

Mique Buck, Indiana Carton Company: Mique Buck expresses gratitude for the dedicated employees at Indi- ana Carton Company and their commitment to community service. With a presence in Bremen since 1957, the com- pany has witnessed continuous employee engagement in various volunteer opportunities. Initiatives include an em- ployee appreciation night at the South Bend Cubs, spon- sorship of the Bremen Community Summer Film Festival, and quarterly engagement events like Easter color box- es. The company also actively supports the local assisted living facility with a Christmas gift drive and hosts a fully catered Christmas party for both current and retired em- ployees during the workday. Actively participating in the Bremen Chamber of Com- merce, they contribute to local business collaboration. Education initiatives involve participating in Manufactur- ing Days, where they schedule tours for students to learn about careers available at local manufacturing locations, along with participating in our TICCIT program, where they visit and discuss sustainability efforts with paperboard car- tons and conclude the program by giving students a carton filled with a sapling and instructions for planting. Indiana Carton Company’s comprehensive community engage- ment reflects a deep commitment to employee well-being and positive relationships within their community. PPC extends special thanks to each member for their outstanding contributions to the industry and the commu- nities they serve.

The program combines work and study, culminating in an Associate of Applied Science from the community col- lege. The company covers all tuition and fees, offering a

pathway for students to become full-time, benefits-eligible employees, aligning with Utah Paperbox’s dedication to nurturing the next generation of industry leaders. Kristen Clark, Metsa Board: Expressing gratitude for working with wonderful people in an interesting industry, Kristen Clark highlights Metsa Board’s commitment to giv- ing back. Alongside her colleagues, Kristen administered our TICCIT program to over 600 elementary school chil- dren! The program, focused on environmental education, was met with enthusiasm from the children. Kristen and her team look forward to continuing this initiative in the coming years, fostering a sense of environ- mental responsibility in the younger generation.
