Check out what our team has been up to!
It was a busy summer for our team in the Northeast! Metro Walls sponsored and participated in numerous charitable initiatives for the months of June through August. From children's hospitals to veteran-based charities, the company has given back to many deserving corporations across the nation.
JUNE
In June, our team at Metro Walls took to the streets for a fantastic cause, sponsoring the New Hampshire chapter of the American Heart Association’s annual Heart Walk in Manchester! With hearts full of passion and determination, we rallied together to raise over $11,000! Our efforts contributed to over a whopping $100,000 total, all dedicated to funding crucial research and advancements for families in need.
But the fun didn’t stop there! As June came to a close, our employees hit the greens for our highly anticipated annual golf outing. The event was a beautiful day on the course filled with friendly competition, including a putting contest and opportunities to purchase team mulligans – all to raise funds for the Employee Ownership Foundation. Being a 100% employee-owned company, we love giving back to the foundation that enhances benefits and opportunities for ESOPs across the nation!
At the end of the event, the winners prevailed and were announced as Brendan McElroy, Dave Wintle, Bryan Lavoie, and Mike Levesque. They chose The Wounded Warrior Project as the charity to receive Metro’s donation, making a meaningful impact on those in need, especially the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.
JULY
As the warm July days rolled in, we at Metro Walls couldn’t wait to celebrate our amazing team with our second annual Employee Appreciation Outing! We hosted the event at Mel’s Funway in Litchfield, NH, and our fantastic Employee Ownership Committee really knocked it out of the park.
Employees and their families embarked on a day of fun, including mini golf, go-karts, and more. The event also included numerous exciting raffles for employees and their loved ones to participate in. The best part? All the proceeds from those raffles went straight to the Employee Ownership Foundation!
AUGUST
In August, our team was on a roll, diving into not just one, but THREE fantastic charity events! At the start of August, we kicked off the month by sponsoring the Friends of Aine Kids Try-athlon, a children’s event that the company supports year after year.
Along with families from our team participating in the fun event, a company-sponsored table with exciting swag pieces was set up to congratulate the participants on accomplishing the try-athon!
As August wrapped up and summer started to take its final bow, Metro Walls revved things up with our 6th Annual Rally for a Cause Charity Motorcycle Ride! This epic event is so much more than just a scenic ride; it’s a fantastic celebration that brings people together for one last hurrah of the season—all while raising money for an important cause! This year's charity recipient being The Liberty House.
The Liberty House is a local charity that provides homeless veterans transitional housing and resources to empower them on their journey to independence and self-sufficiency. This year’s event was a roaring success, raising nearly $6,000 through a fantastic combination of registrations, sponsorships, and thrilling raffle prizes!
With summer officially over and the back-to-school season in full swing, Metro Walls hosted a company-wide backpack drive to help fill 24 backpacks for Catie’s Closet. The organization does amazing work, helping young people access life-changing necessities that really make a difference in their lives. Supporting our community and creating positive change is an important initiative at Metro Walls, and we’re all about stepping up to help those in need.
We love sponsoring local events and giving back, and this backpack drive is just one of the many ways we’re making an impact. So, keep your eyes peeled for more exciting charitable opportunities this fall! Together, we can continue to spread some good vibes and support our amazing community.
