The MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation displays its unwavering generosity as a partner in the  
Companies That Care campaign
 
The tradition of giving continues as the MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation participates, in its third-consecutive year, as a partner in the Post-News Season To Share – Companies That Care campaign.  Their generosity again will help our program support the agencies in Denver that serve disadvantaged children, as well as individuals who are homeless, hungry, or in need of medical care.  

The MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation was established in 1999 to reflect M.D.C. Holdings Inc.’s dedication to giving.  MDC’s founder, Chairman and CEO, Larry A. Mizel, wanted to provide opportunities for the company to give more substantial contributions to make an even greater impact—and so, the MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation was born.  To date, it has donated $4.1 million to charitable organizations that are working to make a difference.

 “Our company knows that action creates impact, and that’s the driving force behind the MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation’s contributions,” says Mr. Mizel.  “It’s important to reach out and make a difference not just in the lives of those around us, but in the lives of future generations as well.” 

The MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation’s commitment to the community, with its initial $100,000 donation in 2005, sparked the inaugural “Companies That Care” campaign.  Part of this initiative included a successful effort in leading the “Companies That Care Corporate Challenge,” encouraging the area’s leading businesses to reach into their pockets to help those who are less fortunate.  Nearly 70 local companies followed its lead that year, creating a ripple effect that has since impacted the lives of those in need—right here in Colorado. 

“The MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation plays an integral part in our campaign,” says Harry Whipple, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Denver Newspaper Agency.  “Their commitment to this worthy cause and to the Denver-metro area truly positions them as a philanthropic leader in the business community.  We are proud to partner with them on the Season To Share – Companies That Care program.” 

Giving back to its home city is part of the MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation’s longstanding commitment to the area.  It believes in building a brighter future and continues to show support for the community in which we live.

We hope you’ll join the Denver Newspaper Agency and the MDC/Richmond American Homes Foundation in supporting this year’s Season To Share – Companies That Care, helping thousands of people in our community.
