Some of the organizations Millennium has donated to in the past include Habitat for Humanity, The Alzheimer’s Association, and Feeding America. The Millennium Alliance is honored to do its part in making a difference within our communities. 

“Giving back to our community has always been and continues to be a core value of The Millennium Alliance. As a company, it means a lot to our entire team to pay it forward and show our gratitude for all of the success that we as a company are experiencing. This is exactly what led us to create our charitable program that will allow us to donate to an incredible cause after each one of our Assemblies. I am excited to see the total charitable amount continue to grow in the coming years, which has to date totaled over $100k.” Alex Sobol, Co-Founder, The Millennium Alliance
