Paul Boduch, co-founder and vice president, said, "While sales at Mass Design have been climbing steadily, employment in the region is still lagging. It is more important than ever for us to give back to our community during the holiday season - something we are able to do thanks to our loyal customers and superb employees."

Mass Design's (www.massdesign.com) Tony Bourassa, co-founder and president, added, "During the holidays, need is often at its greatest and the New Hampshire Food Bank plays a vital role in helping those who would go hungry."

According to Erin Tory DesMarais, development coordinator, "The stagnant economy has made the Food Bank even more critical to our citizens this year. We are particularly grateful for Mass Design's ongoing support."

She added, "Our approach to ending hunger includes programs to help educate agencies we work with. This includes a Mobile Food Pantry, expanding the Cooking Matters program, and developing the Recipe for Success program."

A food bank is the center of food collection and distribution to those in need.

In addition to fabricating flex, rigid/flex and rigid printed circuit boards Mass Design manufactures fully assembled PCBs with all components installed. Products are designed and manufactured at Mass Design's 75,000 square-foot facility in Nashua, New Hampshire and through partners in Asia.
