Member Spotlight: Multi Community Diversified Services, Inc.

Supporting people with disabilities for over 40 years

Multi Community Diversified Services (MCDS) enrolled with First Nonprofit in 2007. During the first year, alone, they saved more than $20,000 over paying state unemployment taxes (SUTA). Since then, they have successfully utilized two of First Nonprofit Group’s specialized unemployment risk management solutions for additional savings.

Located in McPherson, Kansas, MCDS first began serving people with disabilities in 1972. Initially providing only a half day preschool program for six students, today MCDS provides a wide range of services, including residential services, case management, transportation, an intermediate care facility, and children services touching hundreds of families. MCDS host a number of annual events such as their Poker Run and Teams for Dreams Softball Tournament that support their mission of promoting community inclusion and employment opportunities for people with disabilities.

Through its McPherson Industries programs, MCDS also introduces persons with disabilities to rewarding, enriching and satisfying work experiences. This industrial facility with fork lift, loading docks and short term warehousing, provides a work force for all packaging, production and shipping needs.

We look forward to continued success with MCDS! For more information about their services, visit their website: www.mcds-ks.org.

Testimonials

First Nonprofit has saved us so much money over the state’s program. We had one little glitch with the state recently and we contacted FNP immediately. FNP staff called us back immediately and moved to remedy the problem.

Community Care Inc., Milwaukee, WI

Life is certainly busy these days but having business partners like First Nonprofit has made some of the process hassle free. We have worked with this team for years. When we changed payroll systems, they outlined every step. I think this team is terrific and I know they get the job done! Thank you, Cruz, to all the team at FNP.

Gulfside Healthcare Services, New Port Richey, FL

FNP has helped our agency to save thousands of dollars every year on our unemployment coverage. The service is phenomenal, and we are thankful to their team as our partner. My experience working with Marshall on the advocacy around UE for nonprofits was also a highlight as someone who teaches advocacy and lobbying for nonprofits. Really, your whole team is top shelf, so thank YOU!

Chicago Children’s Theatre has greatly benefited from our partnership with First Nonprofit, and I have always enjoyed working with the staff on our filings and any complicated questions. I would not hesitate to recommend First Nonprofit to fellow nonprofits. We’re very happy customers.

Chicago Children’s Theatre, Chicago, IL

FNP is a great resource for Daniel Kids. To have a TPA that we can count on to take point on not only managing our unemployment claims, but to support and guide any protest hearing, is invaluable. All the professional support staff we have worked with have been excellent, very knowledgeable and responsive. We are grateful for the help and support, thank you.

Daniel Kids, Jacksonville, FL

When I first began in my position at my organization, I hadn’t had experience working with a company like FNP. The staff was so patient and helpful in helping to explain the benefits of First Nonprofit. Anytime I reach out with a question I receive a quick, clear, and thorough response. I’m so thankful that we decided to partner with FNP. Their excellence in customer service, coupled with their variety of packages frees us up to truly serve our staff and community with a peace of mind knowing that our organization is protected against unanticipated unemployment insurance expenses.
