At that time, 19-year old Kamerer was in transition and sleeping in his car. Times were tough, and he needed work. Recognizing his potential, Price offered him a job. Fast-forward to present day, and Kamerer is married, supervising a department, and supporting a family as a valued Colbert Packaging employee. “Colbert taught me so much more than how to just have a factory job,” he said. “I learned about integrity and workplace pride, and that changed my life!”
Mentoring Kyle and seeing the results sparked Price’s passion and interest in finding a community service program to help change lives in Elkhart’s underserved community. When he learned about the Elkhart Urban Enterprise Association (EUEA), a new relationship was forged as he joined the Board and now serves as President.
