Empowering through community involvement
Microban not only excelled in technology advancements but also embraced a lasting commitment to community involvement, reflecting our core values as a socially responsible organization. This commitment materialized through active participation in the annual St. Jude’s Charity Walk/Run in Charlotte, NC, where our team ran for a good cause and raised funds for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. In the fall, Microban employee-owners joined Bags of Hope out of work hours to pack bags of goodies for children and families facing hardships. Additionally, the Huntersville headquarters hosted a series of Expert Speaker sessions, promoting continuous learning and cultural appreciation on topics and events like Juneteenth, work-life balance, and stress management.
