SALEM, NJ, June 16, 2025—In recognition of their dedication to local community service, Mannington Mills has awarded “Stand on A Better World” scholarships to five students—three in New Jersey and two in Georgia. This scholarship program, now in its 19th year in Salem, New Jersey and second year in Calhoun, Georgia, is fully funded by donations from Mannington Mills associates at those locations.

Salem site scholarship recipients:

Keith Murphy, the son of Jimmy Murphy, Cushion Shift Manager, and Tammy Murphy, Senior Supply Chain Specialist, is one of two recipients in the “Mannington Mills” category. Keith is a graduate from Salem County Vo-Tech School and also earned his associate’s degree in nursing from Salem Community College while in high school. He has volunteered across Salem County for many organizations over the years—Meals on Wheels, St. John’s Pentecostal Outreach Food Pantry, and Stand Up for Salem, to name a few. Keith is pursuing a degree in nursing and will continue his studies at Salem Community College.

Sophia Wolff, the daughter of Jason Wolff, Manager of Sales, Inventory and Operations, is the second recipient in the “Mannington Mills” category. Sophia graduated at the top of her class from Ursuline Academy in Wilmington, Delaware, and is also the recipient of the Mannington Mills National Merit Scholarship for 2025. Sophia has volunteered both locally and globally at Delaware Art Museum Camp and in the Ecuadorian Amazon where she helped a community by planting trees and painting at a school. This fall she will attend Georgia Tech, majoring in architecture.

Samuel Cooke, recipient in the “Salem County” category, is a graduate of Salem High School. His commitment to volunteering runs deep across Salem County through work with Salem City Project Restore, Clean Community Days, Bridgeton Zoo, and Ronald McDonald House of Southern New Jersey. This fall, Samuel will attend Lehigh University.

Calhoun site scholarship recipients:

Ke’Asia Milliam, daughter of Rever Green, Quality Technician, is a graduate of Calhoun High School. This fall, she will attend the University of West Georgia and pursue a degree in nursing. Through volunteer clubs at her school, Ke’Asia has mentored elementary/middle school students, collected items for people in need, and helped with clean-up after events. Her takeaway from volunteering is that community service is more than just something you put on a resume. It’s about serving and dedicating your time to ensure that others are taken care of and well loved.

Colee Moore, daughter of Sherrie Moore, Mannington Commercial Customer Service Representative, is a graduate of Sonoraville High School. This fall, she will attend Jacksonville State University in Alabama, where she will pursue a degree in nursing. Colee has volunteered in her community in lot of ways, including: volleyball kids camp, winter coat drives, Special Olympics, literary reading days to pre-K students, and agricultural literacy days. She says she was taught at a young age to help others when you can and that this core value is the foundation for her desire to get involved through volunteering and community service.

“We commend each of these students for their commitment to serving others which reflects two of our company’s Core Values—Care and Do the Right Thing,’” said Zack Zehner, Mannington Mills Chairman of the Board. “They remind us all that we can make the world a better place by lending a helping hand in our local communities. We wish them all the best in their future endeavors, both academically and throughout their careers.”
