McMjv is a General Contractor Joint Venture between McCarthy Building Co. and Mortenson Co. building the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility in Manhattan KS. Both McCarthy and Mortenson are nation wide contractors who focus on helping the communities in which we build. One of our main focuses is children and helping improve their lives and the lives of their families.

Most of the employees onsite move from project to project across the country. The Manhattan community has taken us in with open arms and showed us generosity. To return the favor McMjv plans to "GET TOUGH FOR KIDS" by running the Tough Mudder in MO and raising money for Local Manhattan Children's Charities.

McMjv has chosen 3 Local Charities to support for this event: Birthday in a Box, Schools for Hope, and Tandem. Please see below for more information regarding each of the charities:

Birthday in a Box: http://www.birthdayinaboxmhk.com/index.html

Schools for Hope: http://www.flinthillsvolunteercenter.com/programs/schools-hope/

Tandem: http://www.tandemmhk.com/

We would like to raise $1,000 for each of the above organizations totaling $3,000. Please help us give back to the community that has taken us in.
