Great communities are built when people come together to support the next generation. ⛳📚

Yaskawa was proud to be a Gold Sponsor of the 30th Annual Tee Up for Education event benefiting the Franklin Educational Foundation and Franklin Public School District.

From the golf outing and silent auction to connecting with community leaders like Executive Director Vicky Cordani, it was a wonderful day supporting opportunities for local students.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this milestone event a success!

🏌️ Some motion is easier to control than others.

This week, Michael Miller and Tim Keough joined Kyle Swanson and Tom Chartier from Douglas Machine Inc. at the United Way Golf Fundraiser in Alexandria, Minnesota.

The scorecard may not have reflected Yaskawa-level motion control, but spending the day supporting United Way and giving back to the local community made the event a success.

Thanks to everyone who helped make the fundraiser possible! ⛳
