Wired to Serve

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 19, 2020

COLUMBIA, TN - After news spread that Maury County Public Schools would need to shut off all water fountains to reduce the risk of spreading the Coronavirus, the team at WireMasters, Inc. decided to take action. Thanks to the WireMasters leadership, a water bottle drive was put in place, and employees began pitching in to help.

After just one week, the employees of WireMasters brought in 533 cases of water, contributing more than 15,000 bottles of water for the students in Maury County! Members of WireMasters’ Human Resources department delivered the water to Columbia Central High School and Santa Fe Unit School in preparation for the 2020 - 2021 school year.

“Words cannot express our sincere appreciation for the more than 7,000 bottles of water from WireMasters to help our students, teachers, and staff during these unprecedented times,” said Columbia Central High School Principal Roger White.

WireMasters HR Generalist Allie Adkisson was able to be a part of the water bottle drive from start to finish. She summed up the experience stating, “WireMasters, as a company, is always excited and willing to participate and help out where it’s needed. Our employees step up to the plate whenever asked! That is a true testament to the entire company – from the warehouse to the sales department, all the way up through our leadership chain. We are thankful for the opportunity to give back to the community and work with a few local Maury County schools to do so.”

Santa Fe Principal Randy Hubbell stated, “The staff, students, and administration would like to thank WireMasters for the water drive they conducted for our school. We were in a stressful situation due to the fact our students are not allowed to drink from the water fountains, and we have no filling stations at this time. We have ordered five filling stations, and they are due to be shipped in the next few weeks. Due to WireMasters donating over 500 cases of bottled water to our school, we are going to make it through this crucial time while awaiting our filling stations. WireMasters continues to be a great partner in education anytime we ask, but in this situation, they saw the need, and they went to work. We want to give a big thanks to all the employees, management, and volunteers that helped with this amazing effort.”

Anyone interested in donating to Maury County Schools is encouraged to contact the Maury County Board of Education or individual school principals.
