United Way of Central Kentucky

Today's Live United Spotlight shines on Monument Chemical in Brandenburg, a long-time corporate donor for UWCK. Headquartered in Indianapolis, they serve the specialty hydrocarbon industry, producing a variety of solvents, specialty fuels, and more. The Brandenburg plant, built in 1951, was originally part of Mathieson Chemical Corp and has changed ownership over the years, finally being acquired by Monument Chemical in 2012. We are incredibly grateful for Monument Chemical's continued investment in our important work!
