Last week Schrock Innovations received a letter from the City of Lincoln regarding our support of America Recycles Day.

Each year students and businesses across Lincoln pledge to commit themselves to recycle more in the coming year. Each pledge is placed in a box and a drawing is conducted.

As we have done in the past, we donated a computer system to this year’s pledge winner. Here is the text from the letter we received from Gene Hanlon, Lancaster County’s Recycling Coordinator:

In the Money section of today’s Omaha World Herald Schrock Innovations was featured as a “business makeover”. After our recent improvements to our Lincoln Service Center, our Omaha location is paling in comparison and I know we need to do something about it.

We have a set of plans in place for it, but when Stephanie Monge offered me the opportunity to sit down with not just one, but a team of consultants about our plans I could not pass it up. Here is the article as it appeared in the paper today:

Dave Bonicatto of Hague Quality Water won a Schrock Innovations notebook computer in the 2008 LIBA Membership Drive by recruiting more new members to LIBA than anyone else.

Congratulations Dave!

Schrock Innovations is donating a $1,500 computer in a joint effort with the Lincoln/Lancaster county Health Department to encourage recycling efforts across the community.

Schrock Innovations donated a computer to the Lincoln Life Coaching Center to help them run their business office more efficiently.

Here is the thank you note they sent over to us. Keep up the great work ladies and Schrock will always be here when you need us!

Unless you have been living under a rock you know that Ty’s Team with Extreme Makeover Home Edition is replacing a home in Havlock this week.

What you may not know is that the technology required to coordinate the estimated 1,500 needed volunteers is also being provided by Schrock Innovations.

The Home Builder’s Association of Lincoln (HBAL) called Schrock Innovations in early October about Project 411 – the code name for the planned renovation of the Machacek family home.

It was estimated that the build team would need more than 1,500 volunteers to complete the build within the one-week time frame, and HBAL needed an easy way to coordinate the schedules, skills, and abilities of the volunteers involved.

Schrock Innovations regularly donates to Dreams Unlimited. Dreams Unlimited is a charity that provides recreational opportunities to children with disabilities.

We are happy to help, but the impact of what we were doing really hit home when Rob and Becky Goodban sent us a thank you note with a small picture Aaron drew for us of the mountains she he while he was skiing.

Here is what they wrote:

Schrock Innovations donated several copies of the latest version of our Maintenance Checkup Home Edition software to the Christ Schools’ Taste of Italy Dinner and Auction.

The funds raised at the event are used to provide numerous instructional assets like books, computers, and general supplies for the students.

Here is the thank you letter they sent to our Omaha Service Center:
