Duke Energy Lee Nuclear Project Team at Draytonville Elementary School Several organizations have been the beneficiaries of volunteer hours in the past couple of weeks from employees of Duke Energy Lee Nuclear Project Team, the Timken Gaffney Bearing Plant, UPS Freight, Hamrick Mills and Milliken - Magnolia Plant. Almost 100 employees volunteered over 36 hours of their time to help with needed projects.

“It was a tremendous help for Duke Energy to supply landscaping items we needed and then to actually do the work,” said Janice Ford, principal at Draytonville Elementary School. “The new mulch and shrubbery made a big difference in the way the school looks and everyone really appreciates all their hard work.”

Draytonville Elementary has 310 students in grades 4K-5th.

Melissa Green, director of Iron City Ministries, kept employees of Milliken busy for two days.

Timken Gaffney Bearing Plant at Boys & Girls Club “They moved our offices around, painted from one end to the other, solved computer problems and revamped our filing system,” she said. “Even our clients noticed the difference.”

Iron City Ministries assists the needy with food, clothing, household items and utility bills.
