Middough Cares

The Middough Cares initiative is about our team getting involved in programs, volunteer activities, and projects in communities that support our office locations. These events and causes are meaningful and personal to our employees, clients, and local communities. Middough Cares is rooted into our culture.

We proudly supported the Wounded Warrior Project® for our annual Veterans Day Campaign for the second consecutive year. The Wounded Warrior Project is a foundation that serves veterans and service members who served in the military on or after September 11, 2001, and incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound during or after service. Middough Inc. agreed to match up to $2500 in donations, and we are product to say we met our goal and raised over $5000 for the Wounded Warrior Project this year.
Our Chicago team used their skills to help repair a home on Chicago’s Southside, with Rebuilding Together. Together they worked on repairing the inside of the house, as well as rebuilding the outside staircase and fence around the yard. Every shared moment, tool, skill, and laugh brought the team closer, reaffirming our dedication to service through Middough Cares
This year, we came together as One Middough for our first annual Corporate Holiday Giving Campaign to make a greater impact on our communities via The Salvation Army. Middough also pledged to make a matching donation to The Salvation Army up to $2,500. We are proud of the impact we made on the communites all around us - way to go, Middough!
