In our more than 20 years as an organization, the East Harris County Manufacturers Association has been committed to Making Good in our community and for our industry.  As companies, and as people who live and work in these communities, we strive to operate safely and bring a higher quality of life to our neighbors and employees through above-average wages, community contributions and local economic stimulus opportunities.  Our industry's strong tax base also provides millions of dollars to the community every year through taxes, payrolls, purchases and capital expenditures.
