BASF Employees donate to help Empowering kids
GREENVILLE – Ashley Kozak and several other employees at BASF
Corporation got together and purchased supplies to donate to Empowering
Darke County Youth for its After School Programs in Greenville and
Ansonia.
“We can’t thank Ashley and the rest of the BASF employees enough for
taking a personal interest in our kids,” said Empowering Executive
Director Bob Robinson. “Corporate, non-profit and business gifts are
essential in allowing us to meet our budget goals each year; personal
gifts are important as well, but more than that, they tell our kids
that the residents of Darke County also care.”
Empowering is a United Way Partner Agency and, in addition to giving
supplies to Empowering programs, BASF employees helped fill the recent
United Way Stuff-A-Bus Campaign.
“Small business and individual donations are a significant part of the
community support we rely on each year,” Robinson added. “They tell our
children that we all care about them.” Parents have made donations –
supplies, snacks and monetary – as have many residents over the years.
“It all adds up,” Robinson added. “We appreciate all the help we can
get.”
For more information go to Facebook Empowering Darke County Youth or
email: empoweringyouth101@gmail.com. Donations can be mailed to P.O.
Box 1113, Greenville, Ohio 45331.
The Empowering Mission: Empowering Darke County Youth provides After
School and Summer Tutoring programs to assist students in the areas of
language arts and math with the goal of Strong Students for a Strong
Community.
