Returning Profits and Support to Our Local Communities
CMS Controls is extensively involved in the communities in which they serve. From Meals on Wheels to Habitat for Humanity, our employees and company are committed to giving a portion of our profits back to the people and organizations in our community who need it most. During the holidays, our employees donate toys to the local Toys for Tots programs. We host annual blood drives for the American Red Cross, where both our own employees as neighbors donate much-needed blood and plasma. We serve on the boards and committees of many local organizations including the YMCA, Arts Together, Kiwanis Club, and multiple houses of worship.
To help provide the homeless with food and shelter, we support multiple community shelters. We donate communications equipment to women's shelters in an effort to provide them with a means of reaching out for help. We also participate in fundraisers and charitable events targeted towards charitable organizations whom our customers and employees support as well. CMS has used their mechanical skills and vendor relationships to provide heating and air conditioning equipment to those without proper means to take care of themselves in emergency situations.
