Since 2009, Envirocon and the other Washington Companies have given back to their communities via the “Pay It Forward” campaign. This annual program is organized by the Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation, and values grassroots philanthropy by placing the act of giving into the hands of Washington Company employees.

Each year, 250 charitable giving cards worth $500 each are distributed to employees from Envirocon, Modern Machinery, Montana Rail Link, Montana Resources, and Washington Corporation through a random drawing.

This year’s stories are truly heartwarming. Some employees chose to support local organizations like the Valor House, the YWCA, the Missoula Food Bank, Stafford Animal Shelter, and more. Others provide food and daily essentials for families going through tough times. To read the stories of hope and caring, visit the Foundation’s website.
