Our Values 

Impactful work is the product of impactful people. We believe in working on ourselves to make increasingly positive impact on our relationships with each other, our partners, our clients, our markets and the community. Our values are the basis of that work. More than words on a page, they’re the behaviors and expectations we hold each other accountable for every day.

Pride Month

This month, we’re honoring the LGBTQ+ community and its ceaseless pursuit of equality and equity. Throughout the month of June, our DEI council will provide our Mx teams with authentic and actionable ways we can pay tribute to LGBTQ+ members. The council helps educate the Mx staff with important moments from history and recommends resources to help deepen our understanding and promote inclusivity among our workplace. This helps us live our values of diversity, equality and empathy. Our goal this month is to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, which has enriched America’s history and made vast contributions to pop culture and more.

Day of Service

On Monday, January 16, we united for our second annual Day of Service. Our Day of Service is an opportunity for us to live our values in a tangible way while honoring the legacy of service inspired by Martin Luther King Jr.

We partnered with 11 different charitable organizations across Chicagoland that included therapeutic programs, clothing donations, food suppliers and after-school programs. Mx teams donated their time and talents by participating in traditional volunteer activities like organizing supplies, distributing food and clothing, assembling after-school kits, etc… We also offered pro bono marketing services for the organizations such as refreshing their marketing materials to attract donors and developing business plans.

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr., The Mx Group participated in our second annual Day of Service. Company-wide, we partnered with 11 different charities across Chicagoland to offer traditional volunteer activities and pro bono marketing services.

Sarah’s Inn

For the sixth year in a row, The Mx Group has partnered with Sarah’s Inn for our company-wide holiday giving initiative. Sarah’s Inn is a charitable organization that provides comprehensive services for families affected by domestic violence so that they get the support they need to find safety, rebuild their lives and heal. Employees of The Mx Group were invited to contribute a monetary donation or to purchase from a variety of gifts that were identified as necessities or comfort items for Sarah’s Inn clients. The items were shipped to the Mx office in Burr Ridge, where the team joined together to pack the gift bags and write notes of encouragement to include in the bags. In total, we were able to send 72 gift-filled bags valued at approximately $50 each. Additionally, because of the generosity of our employees, we were able to contribute an additional $4,000 worth of gifts for the Sarah’s Inn annual holiday gift drive with our company match program, far exceeding our initial estimates.

We are incredibly grateful to all of our Mx employees who donated their time and/or financial means to this necessary organization whose mission is to improve the lives of those affected by domestic violence and to break the cycle of violence for future generations.
