About NSTec  

Community:

NSTec employees pledge more than $320,000 annually to the United Way of Southern Nevada, and the company has awarded more than $2 million in educational grants and charitable contributions. The company partners with two local at risk schools, hosting food drives and school improvement projects. Add to that NSTec's generous support for area food banks, the American Red Cross, and the Salvation Army's Angel Tree program, among others, and it is easy to see why the company has earned a reputation for giving back to the communities it serves.
