Dec-O-Art brings awareness to the Elkhart River preservation efforts with donation to the Elkhart River Restoration Association.

Dec-O-Art’s employee-driven, community support initiative continues with another donation to enhance its community. As 2021 progresses, Dec-O-Art’s recipient of their most recent donation initiative was aimed at supporting the local environment, with the Elkhart River Restoration Association receiving the celebratory endowment.

The Elkhart River Restoration Association, also known as ERRA, is a group of engaged citizens, landowners, organizations, businesses, and government entities, that promote good stewardship to improve, preserve and protect the environmental, recreational and economic benefits of the Elkhart River watershed through education, proper land use practices, and by showing respect and care for this valuable resource.

Nikki Smith of Dec-O-Art commented on the importance of the ERRA.

“My husband and I are nature lovers so I was familiar with the ERRA and their educational events like the river clean-up which I’ve always loved and appreciated and tried to encourage. They are really doing a lot of good in this area.”

The Dec-O-Art team presented a check to the ERRA for $5,050.50 in recognition of Dec-O-Art’s 50th year.
