As the industry changes and our clients’ needs evolve, we never compromise our commitment to those core values. A PROMISING BEGINNING From modest beginnings in 1981, founders Joe Donnino, Donald Jones, and Thomas Thayer and their team grew Tri-North from a small company with 10 employees and a 700-square-foot office into a respected leader in construction. PAVING THE WAY It didn’t take long for word to get out after we had completed our first projects in Wisconsin. Tri-North quickly established a reputation for hard work, superior quality, and dedication to our clients’ long-term success. It was this same reputation that helped Tri-North land our first out-of-state jobs in the early 1980s. In 1985, we built a new headquarters with 3,000 square feet of office space and 3,500 square feet of shop space. 1980s 1990s 2000s 2010s BUILDING COMMUNITY TOGETHER Community involvement and volunteering are a vital part of who we are as a company. We are proud to focus our contributions on organizations benefiting children, people with disabilities, and the environment. VOLUNTEERING Tri-North’s dedication to our community is demonstrated by the passion that our employees show for getting involved. Our team members take it upon themselves to be active in a number of organizations all over the country throughout the year. We facilitate connecting our team members with volunteer opportunities that interest them and encourage their involvement in any way we can. OUR PARTNERS It is our honor to partner with organizations around us that strengthen our communities and make a tangible difference. Below are some of the nonprofit organizations that we regularly support. INVESTING IN THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION KIDS BUILDING WISCONSIN Nothing excites us more than watching our dynamic industry progress and grow. It is our honor to sponsor and volunteer at Kids Building Wisconsin’s annual event. The free event gives kids a chance to experience the many exciting careers in construction through fun, hands-on exhibits. “We love being a part of this event that unites our industry and promotes future builders, skilled workers, engineers, architects, and all who contribute to the diverse world of construction!” Tom Thayer, President & CEO FIND OUT MORE AT WWW.KIDSBUILDINGWI.ORG STRENGTH IN DIVERSITY For Tri-North, inclusion and diversity are not just words on paper, they are part of our fundamental values.
