PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, raised over $67,000 during its second annual Silent Auction to benefit the PMMI Foundation and support the future of the packaging and processing industry. Donations are used to fund student scholarships and education programs.

“PMMI received an overwhelmingly positive response of donations from all across our industry to support the PMMI Foundation’s mission of advancing the packaging and processing workforce,” says Jim Pittas, president and CEO, PMMI. “Our sincerest gratitude to all who took the time to participate in this event by donating items, money, and bidding on items. These gifts will help ensure the future of our industry.”

The Silent Auction was held in conjunction with the 2022 PMMI Annual Meeting (Sept. 12-14; Chicago) and raised money through bids and donations both online and in person, with a live component held during the event. Items available for bid included vacation getaways to Montana, New Orleans, Hilton Head, St. Petersburg, and Colorado; autographed guitars from the American rock band Styx that will be signed during PACK EXPO International’s PACK Gives BACK event (October 23-26; Chicago); sports tickets; bourbon gift sets; and more.
