AFS
Welcome to the Cleveland Akron Canton Ohio Chapter AFS Web page. The CAC AFS is one of the largest local chapters of the American Foundry Society in the United States. Northeastern Ohio has traditionally been a busy region for the metal-casting industry. Today, we boast a membership that includes over 300 foundrymen and suppliers in Northeastern Ohio. Members include owners, managers, salary and hourly employees from large and small foundries as well as suppliers to this industry.

Scholarship Dinner
Please join us as we celebrate the future of our industry!
Every December we take time to support current college students who show a passion for metal casting by presenting them scholarship checks.
These scholarships are funded by the profits of the CAC Ohio AFS annual golf outing, the monthly 50/50 drawings and a healthy endowment held by The Foundry Educational Foundation.
We want to celebrate the students, encourage their work journey, and help them find a career path that supports the industry and brings them lasting fulfilment.
So grab a friend, a spouse, or a coworker and join us for this special night of seasonal hospitality as we wrap up the year by presenting these students with award checks!!
AFS membership is not required to attend.
