 ​THE MRCC IS PROUD TO FACILITATE COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS THROUGH OUR EVENTS AND GROUPS.  HERE IS WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS.

Scholarship and Recognition Luncheon

Chamber Affiliation:  Lincoln Tech

Ramapo College of New Jersey - $2,000

5K Scholarship Run and 3K Walk
​Community Partner:  New York-New Jersey Trail Conference

The annual 5K Run and 3K Walk is an event enjoyed by MRCC members along with their families and the community at large. A portion of proceeds is donated to NY-NJ Trail Conference. 

Annual Golf Outing and Humanitarian Dinner
​Community Partners:  Desire 4 Hope and Mahwah Municipal Alliance 

The MRCC annual golf outing awards the Humanitarian of the Year with a donation to the charity of his or her choice.  Our 2021 Humanitarian of the Year, The Van Duren Family, of Ramsey Auto Group selected Desire 4 Hope & Mahwah Municipal Alliance to be their charities of choice.  From the proceeds the MRCC was able to award both organizations with a check for $11,000.00 each. 

Taste of the Region
​Community Partner:  Table to Table 

The Taste of the Region event is a food, beverage and service expo where attendees can sample delicious tastings from local restaurants, wineries, breweries and more. Raffles are sold throughout the evening and one hundred percent of the proceeds goes to a chosen community partner. It’s always a huge success, and in 2021 the MRCC was able to donate $1,010.00 to Table to Table.  In addition, at the end of the evening all left over food is packaged up and goes to Table to Table also.

Holiday Luncheon
​Organization of the Year

Among the awards given out at the Holiday Luncheon, the MRCC selects an Organization of the Year from its nonprofit members. In 2021 the award went to Center for Hope and Safety, and they were presented with a check for $1000.00.

Holiday Luncheon
​Eastwick College Feed the Hungry

Thomas Eastwick, President at Eastwick College and MRCC member, facilitates a year-round Feed the Hungry drive.  At the 2021 Holiday Luncheon, he opened bidding to the floor to allow MRCC members to participate in supporting local food banks.

WIBI (Women in Business Initiative)
​Community Partner:  Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey

WIBI wanted to find a community partner that they could share their time and talent with, and they are thrilled to be partnering with the Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey for 2020!  The first venture is going to be a speed networking session where these fabulous young ladies (8th to 12th graders) will have an opportunity to exchange business cards and ask questions of each WIBI member about their career - the challenges, lessons learned - and their mentors.

YPN (Young Professionals Network)
​Community Partner: Community Outreach Services

The YPN's 2021 Community Outreach Program raised over $1,100 to donate goods to Community Outreach Services in Paterson, NJ. Each year, they assist a non-profit member of the MRCC by collecting and making donations towards their mission.
