MINDEN, Louisiana – Fibrebond, now a part of Eaton, donated $10,000 in AdoptAClassroom.org funding today to North Webster High School. As a business in Webster Parish for 40+ years, Fibrebond has recruited significantly from high schools, colleges, and universities throughout the northwest Louisiana region. The recent acquisition by Eaton, an intelligent power management company, allows Fibrebond to provide employees local opportunities, now with a global reach.
With more than 1,000 workers on site daily, Fibrebond steadily hires for engineering, manufacturing, electrical, and mechanical positions to name a few. North Webster High School’s dedication of these funds towards science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education will help inspire and prepare these students for high demand jobs at Fibrebond.
“On behalf of North Webster High School, I would like to thank Fibrebond for their generous donation. These funds will be invested in our Biology and Chemistry labs for students to explore science in greater depth. North Webster UKnighted!” said North Webster High School Principal Gabe Lyons.
“North Webster High School alumni are well represented at Fibrebond,” said James Reed, Fibrebond and Eaton Integration Leader. “We welcomed this opportunity to invest in our future workforce and the community itself.”
