Lippert's annual Pack-Out event has been a staple in the community for several years, and this year's event was no exception. The company's commitment to giving back to the communities they serve is truly admirable. By packing out thousands of boxes with food and dry goods, Lippert is making a tangible impact on the lives of those in need.
The Pack-Out event took place at Boys and Girls Club locations across Elkhart County, with over 40 volunteers lending a hand at one location alone. This level of community engagement is a testament to the company's dedication to making a positive difference.
Lippert's human resources leader, Sophia Jones, emphasized the importance of giving back to the communities they serve. 'To Lippert specifically, we have an obligation in our community to give back to the communities that we serve,' she said. This sentiment is echoed by the company's Chief Leadership and Culture Development Officer, Amber Selking, who stated that Lippert aims to be a force for good in the community.
The event has been taking place annually since 2020, with this year's Pack-Out 2.0 iteration adding a new drop site element. This partnership with the Elkhart County Boys and Girls Clubs allows Lippert to hand-deliver boxes directly to those in need, making the distribution process more efficient.
Lippert's team members spent several days packing boxes filled with food items and dry goods. One box typically contains longer shelf-life items like canned beans and vegetables, while another is packed with essentials such as deodorant and soap.
The company's commitment to volunteerism is truly impressive, with over 200-250 team members participating in the packing process each week. This level of dedication is a credit to Lippert's culture and values.
Lippert's partnership with local sponsors such as Gymtown Food Bank and Pantry adds to the event's impact. The company's efforts are a shining example of corporate social responsibility in action.
The Pack-Out 2.0 event is just one example of Lippert's commitment to making a positive difference in their community. By working together with local organizations and individuals, Lippert is creating a ripple effect of kindness that will be felt for years to come.
As the company continues to grow and thrive, it is heartening to see Lippert prioritizing giving back to the communities they serve. The Pack-Out 2.0 event is a testament to the power of corporate social responsibility and the impact one company can have on the lives of others.
