Local companies team up for charity

March 3, 2014

During the month of February, Casey’s General Store customers throughout the state of Iowa were given the opportunity to purchase a Miracle Balloon icon, helping to raise funds for the University of Iowa Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. MPA, a Bloomfield based company, recently made a contribution of $1,000 toward the cause. MPA feels strongly about giving back to the community, as well as to worthy causes like the Children’s Miracle Network. 

 

Since 1983, $4.2 billion has been raised for the the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals through partnerships with some of the most generous companies in North America. The employees and customers of such sponsors have created countless miracles at children’s hospitals. From selling iconic Miracle Balloons to hosting bake sales to washing cars, every sponsor supports their local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital in their own unique way.

The Children’s Miracle Network, along with their partners, continue to make a difference in the lives of more kids and their families than any other children’s charity.

MPA is an IT, Creative and Application Development firm. The company continuously focuses on making life better through technology innovation and creative solutions.
