ABB Inc. Employees Support Boy Scouts Annual Scouting for Food Drive.   At this time of year, when ABB’s Sherry Stahl, Administrative Assistant to Marketing and Engineering, and Teresa Walker, Supply Chain Manager, get together, they are talking about how much food and support they can generate for the annual Scouting for Food Drive. In previous years, between 400 and 500 lbs. of non-perishable food has been collected from employees at the Mt. Pleasant facility.  This year, ABB is helping to grow the drive by matching one dollar per pound collected.

For over 20 years, ABB Inc. has been a strong supporter of Scouting for Food since its inception. ABB’s Senior Vice President and General Manager, Chris Reinbold says, "Especially in today's economic conditions, we see this food drive as critical to the stability of our community and an opportunity for our employees to demonstrate their support and care for those in need. We are encouraged that our national ABB Foundation is able to provide matching support to leverage our local efforts.”
