Across the state of Wisconsin, 12 camps serving 200 students will benefit from the generous support of a $10,000 donation from Appleton, Wisconsin-based Miller Electric Mfg. LLC. The camps will enable students to do something a little different this summer — learn manufacturing skills.
“Miller Electric Mfg. LLC believes welding is a key process to the future of manufacturing. We are proud to provide camp and scholarship donations for the young people to connect with a career in such fields. Welding is a key part to the manufacturing economy, and we need these future leaders to keep it going,” said Bruce Albrecht, vice president, global innovation and technology, Miller Electric Mfg. LLC.
