Tuscarawas County Dale Lauren Foland Manufacturing Camp

We partner with local manufacturers and businesses to present a week-long manufacturing camp for incoming 7th and 8th graders in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. This camp explores manufacturing careers and inspires students to imagine their futures working in Tuscarawas County.

Kent State University Technology Center

We contributed to the construction of Kent State University at Tuscarawas’ Science and Advanced Technology Center. The facility expanded the university’s engineering, science and nursing programs and provided laboratory capabilities for students, local businesses and the community.

Project Lead The Way

We partner with local high schools as part of a nationwide initiative to promote engineering-related courses and careers. Project Lead The Way focuses on engineering-based curricula in local high schools and is often taught by Lauren engineers. Completion of all four years is equivalent to one year of engineering school at Kent State University.

Ongoing Support for Area Elementary, Middle and High Schools

We provide funding assistance, guest speakers, classroom visits and many other forms of support for area schools at all academic levels.

Internships and Mentoring Programs

We strongly believe in providing meaningful work experience for local high school and college students via internships and professional mentoring, and we often hire permanent staff through these programs.

Health & Wellness

We care for the whole person by promoting wellness and healthy living as well as supporting local health and wellness initiatives. Through reimbursement programs, on-site wellness classes and other wellness incentives, we empower employees to make healthy choices every day. We also support a number of health initiatives in the community by working with local hospitals and health wellness centers.

Community Responsibility

We give back to a wide variety of local charities and causes through sponsorships and contributions to community initiatives. We support community activities and involvement in non-profit organizations through personal involvement and monetary donations – especially to those causes championed by our employees.
