Munch’s Supply Donates $86,990 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital

St. Louis, MO (November 19, 2024) – Marcone, North America’s largest distributor of appliance repair, HVAC, plumbing, commercial kitchen and pool and spa parts, today announced the culmination of a successful philanthropic campaign that will benefit pediatric cancer research.

Marcone HVAC company Munch’s Supply raised $86,990 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. For the third consecutive year, Munch’s Supply was the largest fundraising team out of 20 in the Chicagoland area.

Munch’s customers and vendors contributed through online donations and a second annual golf outing that featured games, raffles and a bourbon pull. Munch’s employees came together to support St. Jude through time-off raffles, fun with a leadership dunk tank and a 5K run/walk.

“Year after year, our customers and employees step up in the most generous way possible,” said Steve Raimondi, who is responsible for Munch’s Supply as Marcone’s Regional Vice President for the Upper Midwest. “We are so honored to work with a group of people who truly care for the wellbeing of others, and we know the children of St. Jude appreciate their spirit of giving as well.”

The annual St. Jude fundraising effort is an integral part of operations for Munch’s Supply, which has been donating for 10 years to the hospital’s mission of curing pediatric diseases. The company’s contributions help St. Jude fulfill its goal of treating sick children but never sending their families a bill, so that parents can focus simply on their child’s wellbeing.

It currently costs more than $1.4 billion to run St. Jude each year, most of which comes from donors such as Munch’s Supply. Donations are used to research, treat and hopefully eliminate tragic diseases such as childhood cancer.

Founded in 1956, Munch’s Supply was acquired in 2021 by St. Louis-based Marcone Group.
