In honor of , we are sharing this post from last year. Keep having conversations and keep making ripples to create change resulting in a more diverse, inclusive, and equitable society.

“Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into the water, the actions of individuals can have far-reaching effects.” ~Dalai Lama
We are taking this opportunity to initiate conversations within our company, industry and communities to be a part of making change happen. Our initial pebble starts with a financial contribution to Lake Street Mpls to support the rebuilding of Lake St. in Minneapolis and a commitment to create a more diverse and inclusive Werner Electric. Lasting change starts from within and we must not let the conversations stop.
