The team at Muth and Company strongly believes in giving back to the community that we call home. Sometimes the true meaning of the holiday season starts to get lost in the hectic schedules, to-do lists and commercialism that seem to take over at this time of year. For Chad and Gina Muth, it’s been many years since their kids first inspired them to make giving back a major focus of the Muth holiday tradition, a tradition that has expanded through the years.
When the Muth’s oldest son Brandon was 6 years old, his Cub Scout troop started collecting canned foods for the Helping Hands Food Bank, part of the Big Walnut Friends Who Share organization based in Sunbury, Ohio. Big Walnut Friends Who Share works to improve the lives of individuals and families residing in the Big Walnut School District who may be experiencing a financially challenging situation and need extra help providing for themselves and their families. The Cub Scout food drive was only the beginning; through this organization the Muth family expanded their giving to include the Adopt a Family for Christmas and Coats for Kids programs. They have maintained that focus on giving for several years. “Little” Brandon is now 21, Anthony is 20 and Codie is 14. They love taking the lists from Helping Hands and hitting the stores to make Christmas wishes come true for children in need. From a new doll to a new coat, the Muth family has been happy to offer their help for the holiday season.
Chad and Gina took the idea to the office and began posting lists of food items requested by Helping Hands. The Muth team jumped at the chance to offer their support. Helping Hands also puts together care packages for families during the holidays for holiday dinners and to fill the gap during the school break. Many families have children who get regular meals at school. For a family in need, it may be a challenge to provide those meals during the 2-week winter break. The team at Muth and Company is proud to be able to help Big Walnut Friends Who Share. Giving back to the community is a company-wide value that Muth lives by everyday and especially during the holiday season. We want to thank our customers for their ongoing loyalty. We couldn’t do it without you! Happy holidays!
