At Dairyland, we value forward-looking vision. We set big goals and invest ourselves wholeheartedly in their fulfillment. However, we also believe in the importance of pausing to look back, reflect, and celebrate all that we have accomplished. The past 12 months offer a plethora of examples across our Live Engaged community. Here are a few highlights worth celebrating:
We Invested in Ourselves
The first focus of Live Engaged is “invest in yourself,” which encapsulates personal and professional development as well as holistic wellbeing. At Dairyland, we did this by logging over 900 hours of professional development across our team with activities ranging from virtual conference learning to a leadership development series and monthly discussion featuring Brené Brown’s bestselling book, Dare to Lead. We hope you’ll consider joining us in 2022 by picking a few small ways to invest in yourself throughout the year.
We Showed Up for Our Circles
Whether by logging miles at the MS Walk to support an affected team member, challenging coworkers to a competitive round of ping-pong or taking time to connect across Dairyland locations at the annual summer picnic, we showed up for our circles. When hard times hit, whether related to COVID-19 or otherwise, the team generously provided meals, deliveries, encouragement, and support to those in our circles who needed it.
We Strengthened Our Communities
Serving for the benefit of others is a crucial component of Live Engaged. In 2021 Dairyland staff used 550+ hours of paid volunteer time to build homes, pack and deliver meals, donate blood, clear leaves and debris for elderly neighbors, and more. We also launched the first Live Engaged Volunteer Day, and joined forces with others across the industry to impact their local communities. In year one we saw over 100 people in 2 countries, 5 US states, and 9 companies/groups show up to serve 20 nonprofits and needs. In 2022 we want to make volunteer day even bigger and would love for you to join us.
More about Live Engaged Volunteer Day
We Partnered to Transform the World
Whether in packing 18,576 emergency meals for Haiti after the earthquake or through the work of our partners, we continue to strive to help make the world a safer place. Dairyland’s ongoing partnerships with the Equal Justice Initiative, International Justice Mission, Samaritan’s Purse, and Compassion International mean that in 2021 we could increase the level of safety for people experiencing racism, hunger, injustice, forced displacement from war and conflict, and more.

Thank you for joining us in 2021, whether you chose to make a personal investment in your own wellbeing, joined Volunteer Day, or embodied the Live Engaged spirit in another way. We appreciate you and look forward to Living Engaged in 2022!
Supply chain practices are critical to developing the rugged and reliable products that our customers depend on. At Dairyland, we’ve placed an emphasis on sourcing quality parts from trusted suppliers from the very beginning. Our supply chain team is a critical component for delivering premium quality products to our customers on time.
Creating a supply chain process that adds value to our customers entails more than most people realize. This includes managing supplier relationships in addition to monitoring manufacturing, scheduling, and production processes. It also serves as a critical strategic function involving risk management, monitoring of global climates and political actions, reviewing of precious metal indexes, and more. Careful analysis is a part of a supply chain strategy that ensures our products are built and delivered to the standard you expect.
One of the more notable areas that sets Dairyland apart is in the selection of our suppliers. Suppliers work as an extension of Dairyland and we hold them to a high standard that aligns with our values.
One of the ways we do this is through regular and thorough supplier visits. During these audits, our suppliers’ quality systems are extensively reviewed, ensuring they perform to the standards that they claim. However, supplier visits are about more than their processes. Often the most valuable insight comes from things they don’t know are being evaluated. We speak with employees from all departments—from the front office through production—about their work life and watch for signs of employee health, safety, and clean working environments.
While our supply chain strategy is multifaceted, the focus throughout remains consistent – we thoroughly and rigorously manage every aspect with our customers in mind. The result is clear: quality rugged and reliable products.
Dairyland customers enjoy quality products that are rugged, reliable, and boast an impeccable performance rating across our numerous product lines. No department at Dairyland impacts the final product that is put in our customer’s hands more than our manufacturing team. Together, through a team approach, they drive the quality and performance that our customers have come to expect from Dairyland products.

Our manufacturing philosophy really starts with our people. Located in the small rural town of Pound, Wisconsin, our talented manufacturing team is comprised of experienced, hard-working individuals who each bring new ideas and perspectives to the company. Though their backgrounds and experiences may differ, the team stands unified through common core values and one specific goal: to serve the industry world-wide by building rugged and reliable products people can trust.
Our hands-on approach and thorough cross-training play a huge role in delivering the high-quality products customers expect. Every product that goes out the door at Dairyland is made by an extensively trained and experienced shop floor employee. We manually build and inspect every product without the use of robots or other automated processes, ensuring a hands-on quality build. Our team also emphasizes complete cross-training throughout the manufacturing process. Not only does this give our team great flexibility and efficiency, it also ensures that processes are clearly defined and well adopted across the board, resulting in consistent product quality. Our team members can go to any station throughout the day and work efficiently, delivering quality results to consistent standards.
Furthering our commitment to product quality, our manufacturing team also operates under UL, ATEX, IECEx, EAC, and ISO 9001 standards. We’ve diligently developed procedures that meet or exceed these standards and regularly audit them so that we know we are operating efficiently and are producing great quality products.
The end result is clear to our customers around the world: we build rugged, reliable products that you can trust to perform.
Our Live Engaged initiative was born from our desire to make a safer world. We believe that everyone should have an opportunity to flourish, and we stand together in the fight against poverty, injustice, and suffering around the globe. As we strive to achieve a safer world for everyone, we partner with organizations that have a proven track record of effectively and compassionately transforming vulnerable communities.
In 2016, one of Dairyland’s longtime global partners, Samaritan’s Purse (SP), invited the Tachick family—Mike, Logan, and Kailey—to join them in South Sudan to witness first-hand the work being done throughout the region. They had the opportunity to witness and learn about the diverse programming implemented by SP across the region, in relief and development capacities – both core components of Dairyland’s mission.
South Sudan is one of the world’s newest countries, and has been plagued by unrest since its establishment, both in conflict with its neighbor Sudan and through civil war. Dairyland has been particularly concerned about this region of the world and designated our giving over the years to support the care of highly vulnerable men, women, and children fleeing unrest and persecution. Repeated bombings of this group’s homeland not only left them unsafe and vulnerable, but their largely agricultural livelihoods were also destroyed and normal programs like education became impossible.
In South Sudan, Mike, Logan, and Kailey spent time in three areas: the capital city of Juba, Mayndit, and at the Yida Refugee Camp. Samaritan’s Purse is highly regarded throughout the region and was entrusted by the World Food Programme to oversee all food operations in Yida Refugee Camp. At the camp, the Tachicks witnessed for themselves the large-scale feeding operations providing monthly rations for over 60,000 people. They also learned about water, sanitation, and hygiene objectives (well drilling, water distribution, latrines, etc.), maternal and infant health initiatives, and youth-led peace initiatives.
I think about this trip regularly. It informs—maybe more than I even realize—the way I think about migration, poverty, power, and the difference between relief and development responses. When stats are forgotten, images and memories often stay with us. The trip further connected me to the work of our partners and a sense of urgency that their beneficiaries cannot be forgotten.
– Kailey Dharam, Dairyland Director of Culture and Formation
“Even as longtime partners, there can still be disconnect from the work itself, the communities it is contextualized in, and the impact it generates. These trips cast vision of what is possible through partnership and the resilience of community members,” Kailey reflects. “We didn’t go to South Sudan with the intention of fixing everything, or to save people, we went to learn and connect.”
Samaritan’s Purse’s presence in the region has been notable. Through their work, people who have fled their home country are being fed and offered shelter; clean water is being made accessible through the drilling of freshwater wells, benefiting public health and education; and emotional support is being fostered and extended among a highly traumatized population. Because of these efforts and their ripple effects, individuals and families are helping to lift themselves out of poverty, engage in meaningful work, and create a better future for their children.
“It’s interesting, tragic actually, that this situation could have been just a headline to me,” says Kailey. “Tucked away in the comfort and ease of my life, I have the privilege of being able to miss what’s happening in a country so geographically distant from me.”
Our vision of making a safer world not only applies to our rugged products and our reliable technical support and customer service – although they certainly play a big role. We believe that people have inherent value, and that everyone, no matter their economic situation or global location, should feel safe in their homes and be given the opportunity to flourish. That’s why we partner with organizations with proven experience combating natural disasters, conflict, injustice, and poverty around the world.

Longtime Dairyland partner, International Justice Mission (IJM), is a global organization that works with local justice systems to end violence against people living in poverty. Their three-phase model includes rescuing and restoring victims, bringing criminals to justice, and strengthening local justice systems.
Since 2005, IJM has been working in Guatemala, fighting for the protection of children, many of whom live in red zones – extremely dangerous areas where sexual violence is rampant. In collaboration with Guatemala’s Public Ministry (Prosecution Services), IJM has developed and implemented trauma-informed processes for prosecuting sexual assault cases and has trained and mentored members of the police department as well as prosecutors and judges to protect their nation’s poor and vulnerable. As noted on IJM’s website, Guatemala was once deemed by human rights experts, “a country too broken, and [one that] would never protect the poor” but is now seeing historic change through long-term interventions and empowering partnerships.
In 2019, Dairyland’s Director of Culture and Formation, Kailey Dharam, traveled to Guatemala City to better understand the unique historical and contextual challenges IJM faces, and to witness their interventions firsthand. While there, Kailey toured a city dump-turned-housing-community, a sex crimes police unit, and restorative housing projects with programming for victims. Through it all she had the opportunity to speak with and learn from IJM staff and clients.
During her time in Guatemala City, Kailey was invited to participate in the Day of Joy, an IJM event devoted to celebrating the healing and resilience of individuals and families who have been victims of physical, emotional, and/or sexual violence. On the Day of Joy, survivors who have been restored by IJM’s team—primarily children—are joined by safe family members, IJM team members, and sometimes special guests for a lighthearted excursion in the city. Kailey and other approved visitors were paired with small family units, bonding with one another as they enjoyed lunch and explored the Guatemala City Zoo.
“With tears in her eyes, the mom of the family I was paired with spoke about the pain their family has been through but also how encouraging days like this were, reminding them of how far they’ve come,” said Kailey.
Though recovery is often complicated and ongoing, the Day of Joy is a courageous proclamation of hope, and that happiness is possible again.
Dairyland’s vision is to ‘Live Engaged to Make a Safer World.’ We work hard to make this a reality through our products and solutions, but that vision is also actualized through dignifying human protection like IJM fosters.
Traveling elsewhere invites us to reflect and think about our own communities and engagement with them. It’s easy for me to step into a new country and condemn the brokenness I see, but am I also willing to look at what happens in my city? Am I willing to think about the larger systems at play that perpetuate violence and inequality? How does seeing something like what I witnessed in Guatemala change how I live at home? These are the questions that these experiences often draw out, and reinforce why both local and global engagement matter.
– Kailey Dharam, Director of Culture and Formation
In recent years Dairyland has cultivated an important relationship with the Stoughton Area Senior Center (SASC). The SASC—located just a few miles down the road from Dairyland’s headquarters—provides a variety of programs, services, and opportunities for community members over 55 years of age. Like many other service organizations, the SASC relies on volunteers to meet the needs of the community they serve, and offer a variety of volunteer opportunities for both individuals and groups. Dairyland employees have participated in two of these opportunities: weekly meal delivery and seasonal yard maintenance.
As part of Dairyland’s Live Engaged initiative, employees are encouraged—and paid—to participate in volunteer opportunities during work hours. Employees are given up to two hours per month to use when their schedules allow it.
For the past two years, Ken Schuh, Dairyland’s Operations Manager, has used his volunteer time to pull together a team each spring and fall to perform yard maintenance and clean up for senior citizens and people with disabilities in the Stoughton area.
“Our partnership with the Stoughton Area Senior Center provides a safe, simple and tangible way for employees to meet the needs of others, expecting nothing in return,” said Ken. “It’s introducing employees to an opportunity for Living Engaged right now and may grease the skids for doing so in different and fresh ways in the future.”
Sandy and her father volunteering during Live Engaged Volunteer Day 2021
Another member of Dairyland’s team, Sandy Paton, has been volunteering with her father through the SASC for the last three years, providing Meals on Wheels deliveries.
“We are delivering healthy meals to senior citizens who are unable to leave their homes due to illness or who don’t have other resources for purchasing food,” Sandy noted. “I’ve heard from the coordinator at the Senior Center that for some people, this is their only meal of the day.”
Both services are vital to individuals in the area who are lacking resources that many take for granted.
“It’s local, simple, and practical. If not me, who? I have awareness and the ability to do this work, where others may not. I’m simply being a good steward of what I’ve been given,” said Ken on his involvement with the SASC and inclusion of other Dairyland employees.
It’s very important to me to give back to Stoughton. Without volunteers, many services that members of the community depend on wouldn’t be so readily available.
— Sandy Paton, Dairyland Executive Assistant
Strengthen your community is one of the four pillars of Dairyland’s Live Engaged initiative, and both Ken and Sandy are exemplars of this principle.
Live Engaged consistently reminds us how important and impactful it is to give our time, talents, and resources to local organizations who, in turn, change the lives of others in the community. Camp Daniel is one example of a non-profit organization making a positive impact in their community. Located near our manufacturing facility in northern Wisconsin, Camp Daniel provides a safe summer camp experience for people with disabilities, adapting to meet each of their individual needs. Through their summer camping program and activities, they offer each camper a safe and fun camping experience, while also meeting the unique physical, social, and emotional needs of each individual.
The Camp Daniel grounds were purchased in 1996 on Little Newton Lake in Athelstane, Wisconsin. Since then, the campus has been constructed largely through volunteer time and labor. This allows Camp Daniel to stretch their monetary donations as far as possible and still complete projects at a steady pace.
While looking for volunteer opportunities for the manufacturing team, Dairyland became aware of Camp Daniel’s need for hard working volunteers. Joe Mutchler, Dairyland’s Manufacturing Floor Lead and engagement coordinator, arranged for several volunteer opportunities, allowing the production and supply chain teams to take turns contributing without disrupting production.

Dairyland volunteer teams have been trusted to use their experience and expertise to contribute to various large scale construction projects in an initiative to complete the Camp Daniel campus for the safest and most accessible camp experience. The partnership has been something our team has enjoyed, and they’ve even started to look for additional ways to support Camp Daniel – including donating earnings from the sale of copper scraps they had been collecting for more than three years.
Not only were needs met and progress made, but we gained insight into an organization within the local community that in turn serves another part of the community – people with disabilities. And so it goes, helping people that are themselves engaged in helping others.
– Jeff Hucek, Dairyland Production Specialist
Full-time Camp Daniel staff members, Evan and Anissa Hartwig, commented, “Camp Daniel is so thankful for the individuals at Dairyland Electrical for taking the time to volunteer with our small non-profit. Their hard work and good attitudes were recognized and so appreciated. Through your kindness and generosity we can change the lives of people with disabilities.”
As our partnership extends into the future, the work being done at Camp Daniel will continue to meet a valuable need. Through each interaction with campers, staff at Camp Daniel will continue to deliver a valuable message: that each camper has inherent value.
“I want to be part of this. I want to be part of this family.” Those were the words of a supply partner after visiting Dairyland’s manufacturing facility. Dairyland’s Supply Chain Manager, Mitchell Christensen, recalls that conversation as if it occurred yesterday. He responded, “You are. You’re a partner and supplier to us and so you are a part of this family.” Maybe more than any other story or description, this exchange captures the expression of Live Engaged through Mitchell’s work and the difference it makes in Dairyland’s supply chain activities for all involved.
Values-Aligned Supply Chain
Mitchell describes his approach to supply chain as “multi-faceted,” requiring continual evaluation of risk while actively strengthening relationships with partners. If you shadowed him for a day, you would quickly learn just how many details he assesses to keep Dairyland’s supply chain strong. Managing it requires an understanding not only of the details related to our components and their procurement, but the practices of Dairyland’s partners, global political climates, weather patterns, precious metal indexes, and more. Doing so—and with excellence—ultimately means that we can offer exceptional service to our customers, providing them with a smooth, on-time, and high-quality experience.
Important above all else are the relationships formed. “I’ve met amazing folks over the years who I have come to know professionally and even personally.” One of Dairyland’s five core values is that People Have Inherent Value, and that makes a difference in how we do business. “Everyone has value; it’s that plain and simple. It doesn’t matter if you’re the CEO or the dock worker…everyone has equal value and gets treated the same. I try to enter into every conversation with that as the driving force.”
Ethical + Just
Holding that value extends deeply into ethical sourcing, moral business practices, and inviting partners into Dairyland’s Live Engaged network. “We partner with suppliers who are ethical, who treat their employees and the environment properly,” says Mitchell. And he will go to great lengths to ensure what is said on paper matches the real-life practices.
One example of Mitchell’s determination in this area is through the partner site visits he conducts. Acting as part anthropologist, Mitchell looks for clues about the overall wellbeing of partner companies – especially how they treat their employees. He speaks with frontline employees, observes what is or is not communicated, what populates message boards and scoreboards, the implementation of safety measures and ease of use, programs that exist to support employee wellbeing and engagement, the company’s own constraints, and more. “You cannot allow the cost of doing business to include failure to your employees’ wellbeing.” That’s just the right thing to do and what we look for.
Mitchell also looks closely at sourcing as it relates to conflict countries or areas—places with known human rights and ethical work practice violations, such as slave labor, smuggling, illegal extraction of raw materials, and more. If our partners were engaging in these relationships, “that would be a deal breaker for us.” We will not save money and allow such practices—“it’s a hard line in the sand and we’ll quickly move on from that partnership.” Though already a deeply held conviction, the importance of this stance is regularly reinforced through Dairyland’s justice partnership with International Justice Mission (IJM). One of the ways we support IJM is through investment in their work to end exploitative labor which largely targets the poor and vulnerable.
Mitchell shares this with his supply partners, inviting them into the bigger story of impact.
Just as there is a chain of supply, so is there a chain of positive impact. Because of Dairyland’s partnership with IJM, that component manufactured through a supply partner becomes a mechanism that helps liberate people from bonded labor, whether in Indian brick kilns, illegal Thai fishing boats, or elsewhere.
Linking the Pieces
That resonated for the partner quoted above when he saw it for himself. “He met our team, saw his product, watched our production team put our product in his and send it out the door. We had lunch together—the whole manufacturing facility—and he was just part of the family [making this possible].”
Wherever you are, and in whatever work you do, you have an opportunity to Live Engaged. If you are a partner to Dairyland in some capacity—whether buying our products, supplying parts, improving our systems, etc.—you, too, are making global impact possible. You are helping us make a safer world through application of our solutions, and partnership with great organizations like IJM. Thank you!

Our Dairyland team started Live Engaged Volunteer Day with the goal of cultivating a network of people, striving to make a difference in their communities. We know that we are stronger when we work together, and collectively we can make the world a better place.
We also know the following to be true:
- Needs exist in every one of our communities
- We all want to have an impact and be part of something larger than ourselves
- Sometimes we just need a push to get started
We began to wonder what could be possible if an entire industry (and beyond) showed up for their communities. This fall provided a strong glimpse of exactly that.
The Week in Review
During the week of October 4-9, an army of volunteers showed up across North America to use their time and abilities for good. On Monday, a group prepared pallets of fresh food that would subsequently serve 600 families in the coming days. On Tuesday, a team of 19 individuals cleaned up trash along Lake Superior. Wednesday saw heaping tubs of non-perishable and monetary donations for the homeless given by exhibitors and attendees of the AMPP Eastern Area Conference. Thursday brought folks together to pound nails and build homes, and on Friday friends pitched in to equip a nonprofit camp for people with disabilities. These are only a few of the examples flowing in from the week of generosity.
“I loved going through this week knowing there were people all over who were showing up to volunteer – and how many more would benefit because of it. Seeing the stories and photos flow in filled me with joy and hope. There’s something powerful and almost indescribable that happens when we give ourselves to elevate others – especially knowing we aren’t alone.”
– Kailey

“I haven’t felt that fulfilled in a very long time and I wish I could spend a portion of every week doing something like this.”

“The Habitat build was great. It was fun having a bit larger crew there. We had a perfect weather day and clear progress was seen as we started the day with open pits/basements and left with first floor joists in place. Very fun.”
– Ken
To All Who Participated, Thank You!
We appreciate that you took time out of your busy lives to give back to others and strengthen your local community. If you missed Volunteer Day 2021, we hope you will consider joining us next year. But don’t wait. Meeting the needs of our community requires a year-round effort – here are some ideas to get you started.
What if: what you are most passionate about doesn’t just have to stay a hobby but can become part of how you Live Engaged? In this article we look at how Mike Tachick, Dairyland’s President, uses his enthusiasm for flying to impact the world around him.
Mike’s love for aviation began when he was just eleven years old. Tagging along to flight lessons with his father Henry provided an opportunity to watch, learn, and read until he was old enough to take lessons of his own. Over the years, Mike worked hard to save money by doing farm work in his northern Wisconsin community. When he was 16, he paid $20 for an introductory flight lesson with an ex-military instructor, who gave him hands-on experience right away. By age 17, Mike was hooked. He went on to earn his own pilot’s license, fully launching his passion for flying.
For Mike, flying began as an exciting, challenging, and energizing hobby. With time, he was able to use aviation to benefit Dairyland and enable more connection with industry customers and friends. He spent hours in the air traveling to conferences, speaking engagements, and meetings. “I’ve always enjoyed travelling and building relationships with the folks in our industry and it was a blessing to be able to make those trips as a pilot. Seeing the landscape of our country change from farmlands to desert to mountains from the air is really fascinating,” said Mike.

What if My Passion for Flying is a Way to Live Engaged?
As Dairyland’s Live Engaged initiative began to grow, Mike started to ponder ways he could help others through his love of aviation.
A 10 Minute Flight = A Weeklong Hike
For years, Mike provided financial support to Mission Aviation Fellowship, a nonprofit organization that offers aviation, communications, and learning technology services to humanitarian programs in the Americas, Africa, and countries of the Asia-Pacific region. In many of these remote areas, the geography—be it mountains, desert or otherwise—limits people from traveling long distances to receive medical care. This is where MAF volunteers step in to deliver life-saving equipment or medical supplies, or to transport patients to medical facilities. As an avid pilot and experienced business owner, Mike recently joined the executive board of MAF, and now provides guidance and encouragement to their team that supports over 1,000 humanitarian nonprofits around the world.
MAF was founded 75 years ago by a group including Betty Greene, who found herself in a similar situation as Mike – searching for ways to use a passion for aviation to impact the world around her. After the inaugural flight on Feb 23, 1946, MAF flights continued for 75 years impacting the world around them in a significant way. Betty’s story will be highlighted in the upcoming documentary, Ends of the Earth (trailer below).
Flying People in Need
Mike is also a volunteer pilot with Angel Flight, a nonprofit summarized best by their tagline, “people flying people in need.” Certified pilot volunteers like Mike take people with non-emergency medical treatment needs around or across the country to receive care at no cost to the patient. This could mean helping people with medical conditions who cannot afford to fly, or delivering blood products in emergency situations. Mike added, “I was looking for ways to use my passions to serve others. Angel Flight is a perfect fit to help others and do something I’m excited about.”
What are you passionate about? Have you considered how that fascination or hobby might be a way for you to invest in yourself, show up for your circle, strengthen your community, or even engage on a global level? Tell us how you Live Engaged here.
