MSC has been a proud supporter of Education & Assistance Corporation (EAC) since 2005. Over the years, MSC has had the privilege to sponsor EAC events such as the annual Spring Luncheon & Protecting Children event in October. We were also very happy to contribute to the construction of the new Child Advocacy Center in Central Islip, NY. In March of 2010, MSC was honored as Corporate Champion by EAC at their Spring luncheon for our support of EAC and the Long Island community. We are extremely proud to have received this award from EAC, and we look forward to a continued relationship with this wonderful organization.
