A big thank you goes out to all the Stansell Electric Employees that contributed to the Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program this year. Due to an unprecedented amount of participation, Stansell Electric was able to provide Christmas presents for 16 children who otherwise wouldn’t have had gifts under the tree on Christmas morning. Contributions were at an all-time high this year and we look forward to breaking that record again next year.
