Important Changes for 2025 Giving

August 1, 2024 By Andria Homewood

Doing the right thing is a McGrath Core Value and giving back to the communities we serve is of utmost importance to us. 

We appreciate all the interest in partnerships we’ve received in the past. We are implementing changes with the goal to become more intentional in our community giving, in hopes to create a larger impact and be better partners to you – our local non-profits. For 2025, we have decided to go to a one-time-a-year annual request.

Our NEW McGrath Cares Request Portal is NOW OPEN September 1st through October 31st 2024. Apply Here!

In this process your organization can make a request for donations and sponsorships that would cover the year of 2025. This can be for a single event or it can be broken out into multiple events through the year. Our team will review and notify you of our commitments by November 2024. We will coordinate the invoicing and provide any sponsorship materials in the quarter of the event.

Other parts of giving: 

  • We will still have an active account with the Greater Cedar Rapids Foundation. If you are looking for program funding specifically, you are still encouraged to submit your request through the Foundation. Those are reviewed and donated in 2024.  
  • McGrath Cares requests are for event sponsorship requests that provide a benefit to us, like a table and marketing materials 
  • We will also keep a McGrath Cares request open through the year for silent auction items. 

Request a meeting with Jaymie

  • If you would like to set up a meeting prior to the request closing, please reach out to Jaymie McGrath at cares.requests@mcgrathauto.com. 

Request a donation for 2024

  • If you are still looking for a request for the 2024 calendar year, please submit your request through McGrathCares.com. This process will remain open until the end of 2024.  

We are hopeful that this will help create stronger partnerships between us and the organizations within our community.
