A Commitment to Community Continues with Chaney!
Chaney Enterprises has been awarded with national
recognition for its commitment to communities.
The 2003 Good Neighbors bronze medallion will
be presented to Frank Chaney, Chairman of the
Board and Bill Childs, President and CEO by the
National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association in
January, 2004. This award recognizes Chaney Enterprises
for continually supporting community initiatives
by volunteering time, donating materials and
contributing financially to groups and organizations.
The National Stone, Sand and Gravel association
is compiled of ----- companies in the United
States. Chaney Enterprises is proud to be one
of only 46 companies out of this entire association
to be recognized at this high level of distinction.
As a leader in the community, Chaney realizes
the importance of providing help and support
to local organizations. This Waldorf based company,
sets 6% of its net profits yearly and gives it
to the Eugene Chaney Foundation for distribution.
Through the efforts of this foundation, Chaney
has given to over 180 charitable organizations
this year alone. For over 24 years, Chaney Enterprises
has organized the American Cancer Society’s
Annual Bull and Oyster Roast, which in 2003 raised
over $52,000, during this one day event. Chaney
also has an annual golf tournament, supporting
the American Cancer Society, which raised a phenomenal
$94,994 in 2003. Besides fundraising events and
youth sports sponsorships, Chaney has also created
a scholarship program. This program provides
scholarships to high school students, who are
interested in pursuing careers in the construction,
drafting, design or any other industry related
field. Chaney Enterprises is truly in the business
of giving back to the communities where it transacts
business. Charitable organizations, civic and
business groups, recreation and education projects – all
will continue to benefit from the goodwill that
Chaney so sincerely believes in. After all, it’s
the foundation upon which it was founded.
Chaney Enterprises, a construction materials
supplier who services all of Southern Maryland,
operates seven ready mix concrete plants, four
sand and gravel facilities, and a 19,000-square-foot
contractor-grade construction materials supply
store throughout the State of Maryland. Chaney
Enterprises prides itself as an organization
that not only stimulates the economy by creating
a high level of employment in the area, but that
consistently gives back to the communities in
which it does business.
