Monogram Foods, along with Paradigm Partners and Dacon Corporation, recently broke ground on a new 135,000-square-foot manufacturing and processing facility in Haverhill, Massachusetts, where Monogram will use the facility for their sandwich product lines. To mark the event, the Paradigm Partners, the Monogram Loves Kids Foundation, and Designed with Dignity philanthropy program by Dacon collectively donated $15,000 to Massachusetts-based Emmaus Incorporated. 

Begun as a grassroots shelter effort in the mid 1980’s, Emmaus today is comprised of 15 renovated historic homes offering permanent housing, temporary shelter, food, job counseling and life skills education. As a prominent social enterprise centered on the credo "Where Everybody Matters", Emmaus holistically looks at individual needs and introduces change that elevates the trajectory of their lives. 

To date, over 35,000 adults and children have benefitted from Emmaus’s positive impact. These funds support Emmaus’s efforts to defeat homelessness by helping 60 families move into their own homes during the upcoming year. Emmaus is the inaugural recipient of Dacon’s new Designed with Dignity philanthropy program, which highlights community organizations creating measurable change by matching client donations to local community projects. 

About Monogram Foods

Monogram bases its ethos and culture on client success through strategic partnerships, distributing products through grocery, quick serve and retail channels, for private labels and co-packed brands. Generating over $1 billion in sales, every business transaction is treated with the anticipation of creating a long-term relationship.
