Erie Forward
One Wabtec, One Future
Today, Erie is an important part of Wabtec's Global Operations footprint and has a key role to play in the company's long term success. More productive, more efficient, more competitive: we can build upon the progress that's been made and keep moving Erie forward.
Each year Wabtec holds the “Bids for Kids” fundraising gala where Wabtec and its employees raise donations for the Boys and Girls Club of Erie, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and Shriner’s Hospital for Children. This year’s event, themed “Old Hollywood,” was held at the Bayfront Convention Center in Erie, and the Duquesne Club in Pittsburgh on April 12, 2024. Over the past 29 years, Bids for Kids has raised nearly $2.5 million dollars to support these organizations, and our event raised $230,000 in 2023 alone.
