Klein Tools presented a $50,000 check at the 2nd Battalion, 24th Marine Reserve Center in Chicago. Stacey Crooks, director of corporate relations for Operation Homefront (left to right) and James Michael, executive director of Operation Homefront of Illinois, accepted the check from Klein Tools’ Megan Klein, associate marketing manager, and Todd Tatara, director of domestic sales.
“Our camo pliers promotion provided us an opportunity to give back to the service men and women who have sacrificed so much,” said Megan Klein, associate marketing manager of Klein Tools. “We hope this also raised awareness of all the different ways Operation Homefront helps our military and their families.”
“We were amazed that Klein Tools decided to double their contribution,” said James Michael, executive director of Operation Homefront of Illinois. “The $50,000 donation will go a long way to provide financial or other necessary assistance to military families in these challenging economic times.”
