Mercadien Hosts Day of Service Supporting Children, Local Nonprofits

December 2023

Princeton, NJ & Philadelphia, PA – On December 8, 2023, Mercadien associates participated in a Day of Service event benefitting local charitable organizations. The first community service activity was building care kits for Womanspace, Inc., located in Lawrenceville, NJ. Womanspace is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to “prevent abuse, protect families and change lives through empowerment and a safety net of supportive services”. These care kits include essentials needed by women and children seeking safety from domestic violence. Additionally, Mercadien associates assembled wagons, teddy bears, and blankets to be donated to the Millhill Child & Family Development Center, located in Trenton, NJ. The items will be distributed to local children within the Millhill network.

Additionally, throughout the month of November, Mercadien held a Toys for Tots drive, collecting new and unwrapped toys. Mercadien has proudly hosted a collection site for the program, sponsored annually by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, since 2004. The firm’s associates donated dozens of gifts, as well as monetary contributions to purchase toys, for distribution by the Marines to disadvantaged children in the area.

Myron Gellman, Chief Executive Officer at Mercadien, stated, “Our firm is dedicated to supporting our community through events like the Day of Service and Annual Toys for Tots Drive. As reflected in our core values, we believe in the importance of giving back and are pleased to have the chance to make positive contributions to our community, especially during the holidays. Our goal is to make a tangible difference for those in need during this season.”

Mercadien continues to prioritize their commitment to a spirit of giving, year-round. In addition to these activities, Mercadien associates participate in other charitable initiatives throughout the year, including serving as long-standing board members and volunteers for local nonprofit and civic organizations.
