Let’s Lend a Hand
Through McAdams SHARES, McAdams is privileged to give back to the communities where we live and work. Though COVID-19 has prompted a change in our usual operations, our three metros have come together to both share innovative methods of supporting our long-time partners, as well as identify new partners that are uniquely equipped to confront the multitude of challenges our neighbors now face.
