It’s not every day you get the chance to give someone a gift that changes their lives. A group of 12 employees from MSCA member company, Arista Air Conditioning Corporation, did just that when they traveled to Puerto Rico with Convoy of Hope to build a new house and repair other homes that were damaged in Hurricane Maria.

DEWALT collected more than 1500 signatures in support of the WiMI initiative at the MCAA19 Convention. They presented a check to the CEO of MCAA, John Gentille and WiMI Committee Chair, Kori Gormley-Huppert, for $7,500 during the conference.

Over 120 MCAA/MSCA women executives, manufacturer-supplier representatives, local association executives and students got together for a networking reception during the recent MCAA19 convention in Phoenix, AZ. WiMI chair Kori Gormley-Huppert kicked off the event by welcoming all the women and updating them on WiMI activities over the past year. WiMI committee members were introduced and the two Ferguson-WiMI scholarship winners congratulated. The attendees enjoyed the opportunity to meet new friends, share ideas and challenges and foster new networks of contacts.

MSCA’s presented “The Value of Your Service Business to Recession Proof Your Company” at this year’s MCAA19 Convention — and it was a big hit! The session focused on building a strong service component in existing construction focused companies.

We need your help to find a group of extraordinary people who make a positive impact in the lives of others, so please take the time to nominate one or more people in your company that you believe are deserving of this honor!
