The Manufacturers, Products & Services (MPS) Division of NRMCA is still welcoming nominations for the 2012 Concrete Cares Award, which recognizes outstanding contributions in community service by an NRMCA producer member company. With ready mixed concrete plants in almost every community in America, NRMCA member companies are making a real difference. From Earth Day celebrations, to organized volunteering for Boys & Girls Clubs, local schools and recreation departments, to raising awareness for breast cancer screenings, ready mix producers are at work every day in their communities.

The Concrete Cares Award aims to recognize these efforts and shine a national spotlight on the positive impact ready mixed concrete companies have in hometowns across the nation. A donation, in the name of the selected honoree, will be made to the charity of their choice. The award will be presented at NRMCA’s Annual Convention, March 4-6 in Savannah, GA, during the Association’s annual awards breakfast. To read about the 2011 Concrete Cares honoree, Irving Materials – Tennessee, log on to the NRMCA Members Only section of the Web site and check out the article from Concrete InFocus. All ready mixed concrete producers who are members of NRMCA are eligible for nomination.
