The Sakrete Sack Program nearing $90,000 in contributions since 2006

The Sakrete® Sack Program will make a donation on behalf of the Panthers to the Charlotte-area Business Volunteer Council (BVC), a coalition of local businesses that promote volunteerism. The Sakrete® Sack Program tracks the number of quarterback sacks for the Carolina Panthers.

Sakrete® will make a monetary donation of $3,100 along with in-kind product donations to the BVC to be used toward the playground build at Winding Springs Elementary School on April 13, 2011. The in-kind donation consists of volunteers to help with the build, Sakrete® Fast Setting Concrete Mix and mulch from the Lawn and Garden division of Oldcastle, Sakrete® parent company.

This year’s donation brings the company’s total contribution to nearly $90,000 since the Sakrete® Sack Program was launched in 2006. “Being part of a playground build in our local community is one way in which we can give back,” said Johnsie Beck, president of Sakrete® North America. “This is the fifth year we’ve sponsored the Sakrete® Sack Program and every year we look forward to spending the day with other volunteers to build an amazing playground.”

We look forward to sharing this experience with you in April when we post the story and photos from the the 2011 BVC Playground Build.
