At Marlin Mechanical Corporation/Marlin Services, we are pleased to participate in the local community by helping “fill the plates” at Matthew’s Crossing Food Bank of Chandler for Easter.
Tuesday, March 22, 2016, Norm Sanders of Marlin Services delivered a truckload of 100 hams – a donation to Matthew’s Crossing to feed families in need. This is one of the ways we participate in the community. It is a humbling experience and an important part of our corporate responsibility to contribute within our community.
