COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

As part of our commitment to our clients and community, we hold several exclusive and entertaining events throughout the year to demonstrate our gratitude and to thank them for their confidence and continued relationship with Mattson Financial Service, LLC.

Here are some of our previous community events:

At our annual Shred It event on April 17, 2017, clients and radio listeners came by our office to shred away old, unneeded documents and were treated to some “shredded” pork to go along with the event.

The weather was beautiful, and we had a parking lot full of cars unloading their old documents. We shredded 34 tips this year — an increase of 30% from last year! Some people brought a couple bags and others brought 7–10 boxes for a grand total of 6,460 lbs.

To help support hungry children in the community, we also collected snacks for Hand2Hand.

At our year-end Client Appreciation Event hosted at Celebration Cinema, we treated our clients and guests to the premiere of Star Wars Rogue One! Guests enjoyed endless amounts of popcorn, and we even had Star Wars characters stop in for some photo ops. The force was with us!

At our Night in Monte Carlo event at the Grand Rapids Art Museum, we treated our clients to a night as high rollers. Each client had an opportunity to win chips for the charity of their choice. By the end of the night, donations reached upward of a $1,000 for the five featured charities: $1,000 for Kids Food Basket, $1,000 for the Mental Health Foundation, $1,000 for Artists Creating Together, and $1,500 for Children’s Assessment Center. The event also featured hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, dancing, and a live band.

"We had such a wonderful time at your recent Gala event. My wife and I used this as our 'prom’ as we did not get the opportunity to go to one. As always, a first class event. Thank you so much for including us!"
-Charles and Melissa, Current Clients

Clients and radio listeners celebrated tax day at our first annual shredding event. Together, we created confetti out of their old tax returns. Nine of our employees assisted our clients and listeners to unload boxes and crates, so they could shred the unneeded documents.

Almost 100 people took the opportunity to drop off their old documents and start afresh.

"I'm so glad, as is my wife, that you had this event. It gave me to motivation to get all of these old papers out of our home. Now, I have an area in our home we can use for its' intended purpose, not a holding bin."
-Donna S., Current Client

We recently held an event with our clients at a private matinee showing of the latest Bond movie, "Spectre" at Celebration Cinemas South, in Grand Rapids. It was nice to gather in the lobby and catch up with each other before getting our soda pop and POPCORN to enjoy during the show. We had a great time "Bonding" with everyone!

"Thanks for hosting the movie and snacks for us. We had a good time!"
-Harry and Jackie T. - Current Client

We recently held an event at John Ball Zoo for current clients and radio listeners alike. Families enjoyed a day at the Zoo followed by dinner in the new Tree House.

Guests rode the tram and experienced a great evening overlooking the beautiful woods and city of Grand Rapids. At the end of the evening, they took home one of our favorite treats: Popcorn!

We enjoyed talking with everyone and taking in the festive atmosphere.

“We had a terrific time at the gathering. Thank you for the invite. My compliments for holding these appreciation events.”
– Larry B., Current Client
