Community InvolvementCommunity Involvement

Serving the communities in which we live is and always will be a priority for Presco and we provide our employees many opportunities to give back. Presco helps sponsor events such as Walk for the Cure, Special Olympics, United Way, Relay for Life and the 3-Day Walk benefiting Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Employees give their time and resources to the Grayson County Animal Shelter Pet Run, the Big Brothers Big Sisters Bowl-A-Thon and the Christmas Angel program at B. McDaniel Junior High in Denison, TX. In addition, our employees participate each year in helping outfit needy children with school supplies so that they may have a great start their school year. These programs and many more have helped pump over $150,000 back into the community! Read more about the different ways that Presconians give back to our community.

Battle of the Axe Scholarship

The Battle of the Axe rivalry is one of the oldest in Texas history. Each year, the football teams from Sherman and Denison High School compete for the title and bragging rights in the Sherman & Denison communities. In 2008, Presco announced plans to sponsor an annual scholarship in honor of the long-time Texoma tradition. A $1,000.00 scholarship will be awarded to a high school senior who plans on furthering their education in either engineering or manufacturing from both Denison and Sherman High School. In addition to the scholarship, Presco donates custom printed flags and barricade tape toward the fundraising efforts of both schools. Our employees also participate in the can food drive associated with the Battle of the Axe. In 2008, our employees donated over 1,000 cans! For more information regarding this scholarship, please contact Human Resources.

Congratulations to our 2009/2010 Battle of the Axe Scholarship Recepients:
