Weiler has announced the recipients of grants to a large number of Marion County organizations as part of their 25th Anniversary Celebration on Saturday.
Weiler had an open house celebration at their manufacturing facility in Knoxville on Saturday and before the event announced 77 recipients of grants that the company gave out. Weiler chose 25 organizations to receive $1,000 grants and selected 52 groups to receive $500 grants totaling $52,000. Organizations were invited to apply for these grants over the last couple of months.
