The Future of CVMW: Why We Need the Central Valley More Than Ever
The Future of CVMW: Why we need Central Valley more than ever.
For several years, I have poured my heart into keeping Central Valley Model Works (CVMW) running. This family business was built to serve our community of hobbyists, builders, and creators, providing the hobby high-quality parts and kits you rely on. But if this journey has taught me anything, it is a humbling truth: I cannot do this alone.
The Reality of keeping our legacy alive built on precision and passion requires its field to lift it up. Right now, keeping this alive is an uphill battle.
Our 1947 roots: Since 1947, this manufacturing business has dedicated itself to the craft of model hobby parts and kits. Preserving that history takes immense effort.
The Job Search: At 63, I am actively pounding the pavement looking for local employment to personally fund and sustain CVMW's operations.
The Local Hurdle: Despite reaching out to dozens of local businesses, employment leads have been incredibly hard to come by.
The Goal: I am not giving up on our manufacturing legacy, but the business needs your active support to stay online and active.
