Patch Products Receives Zonta's
Corporate Contributor Award
Beloit, Wis. -- Patch Products, Inc. is honored to announce that the Greater Beloit Area Zonta Club has awarded Patch Products Zonta's Corporate Contributor Award for being a local women-friendly business.
Patch Products received Zonta's Corporate Contributor Award because of its many initiatives to develop and maintain a women-friendly business environment including on-site child care, flexible scheduling, tuition reimbursement, leave for new parents, on-site cafeteria, on-site fitness center and leadership opportunities.
Zonta's annual Tribute to Women awards dinner is the only event in the stateline area that recognizes and celebrates the comprehensive achievements of women in our community.
Kelly Jenkins, Patch Products Corporate Counsel and Board Member, says, "Patch Products has chosen to develop and maintain a women-friendly business environment because of the growing number of two income families and women in the work place. Patch added on-site child care, cafeteria and fitness center to its benefits when it opened its new corporate headquarters in 1998. These benefits were a great addition for existing Patch employees and have been a valuable recruitment and retention tool."
Patch Products is a leading manufacturer and marketer of family entertainment products. Board games, card games, puzzles and foam sports toys are the core product lines with such top-selling brands as TriBond®, Blurt!®, Mad Gab®, Malarky®, PuzzlePatch® and Zoam® Light Tracker®. In addition, Patch Products has licensed games for PEOPLE Magazine, McDonald's®, *NSYNC, Backstreet® Boys™ and 98 Degrees.
