We're very fortunate to do business with great people each year, and I truly thank everyone for their partnership. Every year our staff has some fun creating a holiday video for our business partners; usually a fun, silly short movie. This year we wanted to feature more of our people, so we did something a little different. This year's holiday video gives you a glimpse of many Jaeckle employees and families preparing for and enjoying the holidays in their own way. Thank you, everyone, for the business we enjoy together, and we look forward to an awesome 2018!

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!

Jaeckle Distributors is proud to have been involved in this year’s Design for a Difference Madison renovation project. Design for a Difference, the largest charity makeover in the country, provides renovations to the spaces of local non-profit organizations.

This year, Design for a Difference chose Centro Hispano to receive a makeover. Jaeckle Distributors donated flooring, adhesives, and specialty products for the project, and FLOOR360 led the project by donating the design, installation, and project management services needed to update the space. Renovations to the Centro Hispano community center began in early October and covered over 12,000 square feet, with changes being made to the organization’s technology lab, kitchen, offices, and children’s play areas.

Karen Coller, Executive Director of Centro Hispano, feels that the renovated space will allow the organization to better serve the Latino community in Madison. Jaeckle Distributors is proud to have partnered with FLOOR360 to help a worthy non-profit organization that does so much incredible work for our community.

Check out the following news story to see the big reveal of Centro Hispano's renovated space!

Recently, several members of the Jaeckle Distributors team traveled to Miami to volunteer their time following Hurricane Irma. These Jaeckle staff members worked with MCI (Miami Children’s Initiative) to assist with painting, cleaning the grounds, removing debris, repairing bikes, working with kids in the after school program, and completing various other projects in the Liberty City neighborhood.

“It is the small things that add up to big things,” wrote Jeff Jaeckle, President of Jaeckle Distributors, to his fellow volunteers. “It is making a difference, bit by bit.” His words and the actions of those who took part are a reflection of one of the company’s Core Values: Do the Little Things that Make a Big Difference. Jaeckle Distributors is honored to have been part of this volunteer effort, and we are proud to see employees living out the Core Values, both in our business and in the community.
