Giving back to our local community is a mission that MAY Management Services Inc. takes seriously both as a humanitarian mission to help our neighbors but also with a grander vision to strengthen our community from within.

MAY Management has been active with a number of local charities and organizations for many years including:

Ø       The Salvation Army

Ø       The Children’s Home Society of Florida

Ø       The American Red Cross

Ø       Kinder Vision

Ø       Northeast Florida Community Hospice

Ø       Autism Speaks of Florida

Ø       Local churches

Ø       Local schools

As an example of this passion, in December 2008 the employees of MAY Management Services, Inc. agreed as a group to forgo their traditional company holiday celebration in exchange for donating an equivalent financial commitment to several local charities to be sure the children in our community were remembered with gifts during the holiday season in these difficult economic times.

These commitments, both the charitable activities of MAY Management as a company as well as the personal commitments that our employees are privately passionate about brings together a strong belief that by giving and growing as a community we all achieve a better today and a stronger tomorrow for us all.
