Drexel Metals Rescues Pennsylvania Audubon Society
Company Founder Helped Connect Supplier, Installer for Historic Project.
When board members of the Bucks County Audubon Society in New Hope, Pa., were looking for help with a leaking roof on their historic building, they only had to search as far as a supportive member.
Dick Carroll, the founder and former owner of Drexel Metals, participated in bird counts and other BCAS events in the early 1990s. BCAS, established in 1969, is the second largest chapter of the Audubon Society in Pennsylvania. Its mission is to educate the residents of greater Bucks County about the natural world with an emphasis on energy and resource conservation, including the protection of birds, other wildlife and their habitats. When the cedar shake roofing on the offices started to fail, the group reached out to Carroll.
