Participating in industry peer groups not only offers a valuable platform for fostering relationships and exchanging expertise within a supportive community but also represents a proven best practice adopted by many successful MCAA contractor members. These groups provide professionals with an opportunity to benchmark their performance, exchange best practices, address common challenges, and gain strategic insights from industry peers.

MCAA has partnered with Maxim Consulting Group to assist in placing our members into existing peer groups and facilitate the establishment of new ones. If you’re interested in joining a peer group, please complete our survey.

MSCA is partnering with Convoy of Hope during the annual MSCA educational conference to support a local organization in the community where the conference is being held, with needed supplies and hands-on assistance. Over the years these organizations have included food banks, homeless shelters, rescue missions and women’s shelters. Thanks to the generosity of our members and local associations, we have been able to provide over $700,000 in products and services to these organizations.

In 2024 we will once again be supporting Springs Rescue Mission, recipient of our efforts in 2019. The mission began with a Colorado Springs couple handing out sandwiches to homeless people in 1995. It has since blossomed into a full campus serving those experiencing homelessness, poverty, and addiction. 

Your support and donation can help us:

• Raise $50,000 to deliver a tractor trailer full of needed supplies to people in need.   
• Support a worthy volunteer organization that helps elevate their community to find a way out of poverty.   
• Enjoy each other’s company while we pack thousands of hygiene kits to help the needy at MSCA24 during the Convoy of Hope Packing Party, September 24, 2024.

Check out our 2023 project and packing party then join us in supporting the Springs Rescue Mission. $50,000 is a lofty goal, but one that we can reach when we work together.   

If you, your company, or your local MCA would like to donate, you can find out more information by reading our flyer. Donations of any size are welcome and appreciated!  

We will be thanking our donors at the MSCA24 Education Conference, Explore, September 22-25, 2024, in Colorado Springs, CO at the picturesque Broadmoor Hotel. Registration will open May 20th, so mark your calendars!
