About us

MRC Industries, Inc. serves individuals living with developmental or learning disabilities, traumatic brain injuries, emotional impairments and mental illness. The organization began in the 1940's when a group of parents took the initiative to provide alternatives for their disabled children. Incorporating officially in 1969, MRC has remained close to its family roots while evolving into a non-profit agency that administers innovative and diverse services through its programs: McKercher Services, Pathways Clubhouse, and BridgeWays. MRC's service philosophy is that every person is unique, valuable, and entitled to be treated with respect and dignity. Person-centered programs and services focus on individual needs, desires, strengths, and abilities-supporting people to become independent at home, at work, and in the community. In all programs and services, MRC's highly trained staff members have made a career choice to work with people with disabilities. They are skilled, committed individuals who enjoy having caring and respectful personal relationships with the people they serve. MRC is a 501(c)3 organization. Funding sources include individual donor contributions; community-wide fundraising events like the Kalamazoo Klassic; federal, state and local grants; Community Mental Health; the Greater Kalamazoo United Way; fees for contracted work; and gifts to the Annual Campaign and Endowment.

    While we patiently wait for the finished works of art, we wanted to take a moment to highlight a member of the Imperial Beverage family that is also part of the MRC Industries, Inc. community, Nate! Nate joined Imperial in 2021 and was featured in MRC’s 2021 annual report with an entire article on his successes. “Nathan quickly became a valuable employee at Imperial Beverage and received a card from his coworkers full of kind notes about how much they appreciate having him as part of their team. ‘Nate is a great employee! He is always happy when he comes in and is consistent with his output of boxes to be made and often exceeds his goal for the day,’ says Jim Dostal.” We appreciate Nate, and we are grateful to #MRC for connecting us with such a great employee!
