2024 events set a new record for funds raised

HARRISBURG, Pa. — MITER Foundation, the charitable arm of MITER Brands, a residential window and door manufacturer that produces a portfolio of window and door brands for the new construction and replacement segments with an owner-operated, family-first approach, recently raised more than $4.8 million in total through its two annual charity golf outings in Pennsylvania and California. Funds raised from the 2024 events set a new record for the organization.

On Oct. 8 - 10, 587 participants gathered at Hershey Lodge in Hershey, Pennsylvania, for various activities, including golfing, multiple banquets, live and silent charity auctions, and more.

The live auction during the Hershey event offered many exciting and unique items and experiences, including the “Military Support Mission” experience in Washington, D.C., which included tickets to the 2024 Army/Navy game. Additional experiences up for bid were a Need for Speed F1 race experience in Miami, a golf getaway, and Targets and Tennis, which included an outdoor shooting experience at Hudson Farms and tickets to the 2025 US Open in New York City.

“These annual golf outings are truly one of the year’s highlights,” said Anthony Kassab, Chair of the MITER Foundation Executive Committee. “Every year, I am humbled and inspired by the incredible generosity and unwavering support from all who participate, and it is a true testament to the power of community and shared purpose. Over the years, the MITER Foundation has significantly expanded its capacity to give back, enhancing the communities where we live and work, and this progress has been made possible through the dedication of our team members, partners, and supporters.”

The second charity golf outing was held on Nov. 12 - 13 at the Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California. The event’s 217 participants enjoyed golfing and first-class meals catered by the Pechanga Resort Casino staff. A live charity auction featured a variety of excursions, including a North Island experience, a Camp Rainbow experience, an outdoor shooting experience at Hudson Farms, and tickets to the 2025 US Open in New York City. Attendees also vied for one-of-a-kind pieces of art and a wine varietal with a custom box produced specifically for the event. Various additional items were up for bids in the online silent auction.

Both events were attended by supply partners, customers, nonprofit partner organizations, MITER Brands team members, and honored guests.

Serving as the primary fundraising activity for the MITER Foundation, all money raised at the events goes toward the four primary causes supported by the MITER Foundation: cancer support, heroes support, children’s wellbeing, and local outreach.

Formed in 2015, the MITER Foundation was born out of a sense of care and compassion from the MI® Windows and Doors team. Over the years, the MITER Foundation has expanded from local charities to a nationwide presence, partnering with organizations to drive the MITER Brands people-first culture in communities throughout the country.
