The Mid-Atlantic Associates Team and our families would like to thank all our clients for being a contributor to our business and our success in 2016. In 2016, we continued our holiday season tradition of giving back to our local community in lieu of sending cards, gifts, etc. Once again we hosted our annual food drive in December to benefit the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina and the Soup Kitchen at the Ascension Lutheran Church in Charlotte. Mid-Atlantic employees donated over 334 pounds of food. Mid-Atlantic made a dollar per pound matching donation along with an additional $1,000 donation on behalf of our valued clients. The 334 pounds of food and $1,197 donation will result in these organizations being able to provide approximately 6,950 meals to the hungry in our state. This year, in addition to our annual food drive, we gave each employee the opportunity to name a local organization of choice to support the people and/or animals living in our community. Below are a few of the charities Mid-Atlantic made a small donation to on behalf of our employees:
- New Life Camp;
- Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina;
- The Hope Center at Pullen;
- Angels Among Us;
- Horse Helpers of the High Country;
- Habitat Charlotte;
- Interfaith Food Shuttle;
- Jude Children’s Hospital;
- Tri-Area Ministry;
- SPCA of Wake County;
- Alzheimer Research;
- The Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte;
- Toys for Tots; and
- Wounded Warrior Project.
We once again thank our employees and the loyalty of our clients for allowing us to make things like this happen.
