Social Impact
A commitment to social responsibility is central to MD Cress & Associates identity and
purpose.  We want our philanthropic work to have impact beyond what we do as one company
and believe that we can do this by donating financially as well as supporting and serving on
non-profit boards of organizations that we’re passionate about throughout the country.

We work closely with other socially responsible organizations in an effort to create sustainable
programs to make our communities stronger and improve the quality of life of its people.
