In a press release announcing the donation, Scott Hall, president of Greenlee and Textron’s Industrial Segment, said, “This is the largest donation of Greenlee product to a single training facility. We’re proud of our partnership with NJATC and the great work they do to provide training for our next generation of electrical workers.”
