“This feeling of community increases motivation at work and can lead to greater community involvement. Even a small contribution can make a big difference,” said Stephanie Delibertis, American Crane’s Owner & Executive Director of Outreach and Development.

American Crane’s Outreach Committee, Hoist Up!, once again organized employees to volunteer their Friday evening in service to the community. These dedicated volunteers worked alongside neighbors, united by a shared commitment to addressing hunger close to home.

The meals, consisting of macaroni and cheese and apple cinnamon oatmeal, will be distributed through Helping Harvest Fresh Food Bank, with a portion allocated directly to the Reading School District to support students throughout the school year. 

The mission of American Crane’s Hoist Up! Outreach initiative is to support philanthropy, boost employee engagement, and strengthen community morale. Bringing employees together for volunteer experiences reinforces a sense of belonging to something greater than the workplace.

“This feeling of community increases motivation at work and can lead to greater community involvement. Even a small contribution can make a big difference,” said Stephanie Delibertis, American Crane’s Owner & Executive Director of Outreach and Development.

American Crane remains proud to stand alongside the United Way of Berks County and fellow community partners in the fight against food insecurity and looks forward to continuing this tradition for years to come.
