MEC Spreads Holiday Cheer

Published on Wednesday, December 28, 2022 in Community

Thanks to generous donations from employees, MEC donated hundreds of dollars worth of toys to Toys for Tots this year!

In addition to individual donations, our annual Secret Santa gift exchange doubled as a Toys for Tots drive. Team members who wanted to participate were told to get a gift their Secret Santa would have liked when they were 2-18 years old. It was a fun way to reminisce while donating to a good cause.

We also adopted seven families from the Michigan Department of Human Services of Cass and St. Joseph Counties for the 2022 Holiday Project.

MEC and the employee family donated to provide a full Thanksgiving meal and Christmas presents for seven families with 23 people to cover both holidays. Families included senior citizens, and kids ranging from 4 to 16 years old.
