Local Students Tour MGS
MGS welcomed Kewaskum High School, Port Washington High School, and Moraine Park Technical College students and instructors to our Tooling and Plastic Injection Molding Facilities in Germantown. The students enjoyed a tour of our facilities where they were able to see real-life examples of what manufacturing looks like outside of the classroom. During the tour they learned about how tools are made, plastic injection molding, and automation systems. It was a pleasure hosting the students!
MGS Educates Youth About Manufacturing
MGS had a booth at the 2023 Manufacturing and Trade Career Expo (MTCE), which was held on October 18-19 at the Washington County Fair Park and Conference Center. This expo is a great opportunity for high school and middle school students from 24 different schools to learn about different career opportunities within the manufacturing and trades industries. While there, we were able to show examples of products we make, what our molding operators look for when packaging products, and speak to our apprenticeship opportunities.
This year marked the 14th year of the MTCE. To date, over $80,000 in scholarship funds have been raised through the event. Each year, a portion of the proceeds from the MTCE are dedicated to funding education scholarships. These funds, along with corporate MTCE scholarship contributions, are distributed to graduating seniors from each of the chamber partnership school districts. It is the hope of the MTCE that one day, a scholarship recipient will come full circle and establish a career with a local manufacturer.

MGS Holds 11th Annual Food Drive
MGS held it’s 11th Annual Food Drive November 1-30, 2022 and we are pleased to share that our employees have generously donated $5,500.00 to the Hunger Task Force during this year’s virtual drive.
MGS committed to matching all employee donations which means our food drive resulted in total donations of $11,000.00 to the Hunger Task Force this holiday season.
The Hunger Task Force believes that every person has a right to adequate food obtained with dignity. They work to prevent hunger by providing food to people in need by delivering food free of charge to a local network of 70 food pantries, soup kitchens, and homeless shelters in the Greater Milwaukee area. These donations will make a significant impact in the lives of local families facing food insecurity this holiday season.
Thank you again to those that donated for your kindness, generosity, and support of this very important cause. Our food drive wouldn’t have been a success without you. Together we WILL make a difference!
