Just as Chief Buildings are set on strong foundations, we believe the communities where we work and live are the foundation for our employees and their families to grow. To that end, Chief has always been a strong supporter of the United Way. When our new manufacturing plant opened in Lancaster, South Carolina nearly a year ago, establishing a relationship with the local United Way was a priority. Stacy Catoe, HR/Payroll Administrator, set to work creating a workplace campaign, which was recognized last month at the United Way Celebration of Community.

Business and non-profit leaders from Lancaster county came together at the Arnold Room of USC Lancaster’s Bradley Building on July 12th to celebrate 65 years of the work of the United Way of Lancaster County. The United Way raises funds to help provide services to improve the overall health and stability of the community. This can include assistance with housing, food insecurity, prescription costs, and more.

Many awards were presented at the event to business and community leaders who made a significant impact on the campaign through either their gifts or their service. Although we are new to the community, we are proud to announce our impact was acknowledged in the form of an award for New Campaign of the Year!

We are excited to see where the future takes us in Lancaster, and we are thrilled to be a part of the community. Thank you, United Way of Lancaster, S.C.
