Last year alone A.R.E. Manufacturing, even though they are a small company, provided internships for 11 individuals throughout the year. They have been offering internships for over 30 years, partnering with various organizations to help youth develop machining and work skills that can be transitioned into the workforce as machinists and engineers. A.R.E.’s Manufacturing Manager actually began his career there 30 years ago as a high school intern.
Alvin also participates in Yamhill County Economic Viability Program, Newberg CTE Advisory Committee, Workforce Development Committee, and volunteers for Habitat for Humanity. Inspired by the loss of a coworker to cancer, Alvin is a member of A.R.E.Tillery, a Newberg Relay for Life team that has raised nearly $70,000 for the American Cancer Society.
