Donations

Simply Mac actively supports numerous philanthropic causes in our communities. This commitment includes our support of MDA, monetary donations, advisory board participation, volunteer programs and product donations.

Simply Mac receives dozens of requests for charitable giving every month. In order to make a meaningful difference for the organizations we support, we look for consistent, quality philanthropic programs that improve and change lives. While Simply Mac does consider donation requests from all organizations, the company does give priority to local charitable organizations in communities that surround the company's current retail stores.
