Spreading Prosperity Across Douglas County

Publication: Oregon Business

North River Boats employees Logan Ledbetter (left) and Shorty Titus (right) are among a group of employees involved in grantmaking from the North River Community Fund of Oregon Community Foundation.

Roseburg-based North River Boats is one of the nation’s foremost aluminum boat manufacturers, supplying the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and commercial and recreational customers with high-quality, heavy-gauge vessels.

It is also one of Douglas County’s largest private employers, with 160 employees and 124,000 square feet of manufacturing space. Recognizing that committed workers are central to the company’s success, CEO Brent Hutchings—who has owned the company since 2012—introduced an employee stock ownership plan in 2016, giving each team member a stake in the business as well as an exceptional benefits plan.

Now, the company has taken employee involvement a step further by launching the North River Community Fund of Oregon Community Foundation (OCF).

Teeing Up Against Cancer

Roseburg, OR, 5/10/23

North River sponsored two teams in a recent tournament in Roseburg, OR, to raise money to help local families dealing with cancer-related expenses.

North River recently sponsored two teams of employees to compete in the the Douglas County Cancer Services (DCCS) Charity Golf Tournament at The Bar Run Course in Roseburg, OR.

Funds raised during the tournament help county residents who are going through cancer treatments. The funds, which are specifically designated for Douglas County, help buy prosthesis, clothing items, wigs, assisting with rent, groceries, utilities and transportation while undergoing treatment.

C.A.S.T. for Kids

C.A.S.T. for Kids director Jay Yelas (L) and North River C.A.S.T. for Kids Volunteer Coordinator Justin Westerveldt worked together to produce a successful C.A.S.T. for Kids day of boating and fishing on Folsom Lake, in September 2022.

North River is proud to help sponsor and produce C.A.S.T. for Kids events that help disadvantaged kids and their families spend a day on the water.

At the Folsom Lake event, in California, in September 2022, nine North River Boat owners arrived at sunrise to help in providing kids and their families with a memorable day.
