Community Engagement
The founder and CEO of BLUSA Defense Manufacturing, Dan Farber, learned early in life about the importance of a strong work ethic, perseverance and dedication to community. He watched his parents and grandparents work hard to achieve the “American Dream” and developed his strong sense of community through involvement with a variety of charitable organizations.
With Dan’s leadership, BLUSA is dedicated to making a positive impact within the community by sponsoring and participating in local charity events such as the Eagles Autism 5K, as well as providing assistance with Tools for Schools, arranging care package donations for our troops through Operation Yellow Ribbon of South Jersey, assisting with the Thanksgiving Food Drive to benefit The JFCS Betsy & Peter Fischer Food Pantry and supporting our local Food Bank.
BLUSA proudly participates in hiring expos such as Hiring Our Heroes, with a goal of employing local veterans as part of our team of outstanding engineers, technicians, and machine operators. BLUSA values diversity and education and as such, supports local community college manufacturing programs by providing assistance with course curriculum development, internship opportunities for program participants and equipment donations.
As an Equal Opportunity Employer, BLUSA prides itself on supporting special needs programming in our community, and employing people with special needs as part of our team.
At BLUSA Defense, we take our responsibility to our community to heart and look for ways to bring people together.
