The Independent Welding Distributors Cooperative, a corporation focused on leveraging the strengths of its independent welding distributor members across North America, is celebrating its 25th anniversary.
In recognition of its 25 years, the corporation held an auction earlier this month which generated over $30,000 dollars for Workshop for Warriors, a non-profit school which trains, certifies and places veterans, wounded warriors and transitioning service men and women into advanced manufacturing careers, including welding and fabrication.
“We wanted to do something special and, though generous Vendor partner support, we were able to commission an artist who crafted a one of a kind oil painting on steel, titled ‘Warrior to Welder,’” said Frank Kasnick, President and CEO of the IWDC.
