Community

At Hallmark we give back to the community in many ways. Click here to learn about our charitable giving activities.

We recently made a donation to Ms. Reese's Language Arts class at William Lemmel middle school in Baltimore. We hope anyone who is reading this who is looking for a great place to donate money will also donate to this wonderful cause. Visit www.DonorsChoose.org to look for other worthwhile educational causes to support.

Here is a thank you letter from the teacher:

"Dear Hallmark Construction & Next Day Gutters,

On behalf of myself and the students at William H. Lemmel, we extend to you our sincere appreciation for your generosity. This wonderful gift could not have come at a better time. I was literally in the process of trying to creatively modify my monthly expenses, so that I would be able to afford a few gifts for friends, family, and people in need, as well as, purchase the items that you have graciously gifted to our classroom. I will sleep peacefully tonight knowing that my students will not have to do without, because of their teacher's over zealous Christmas spirit.

Thanks a million,

Ms. Reese and the students of William H. Lemmel"

Local Remodeling Company Goes Green for Montgomery County Families Recycling Proceeds to Benefit Agricultural History

For Immediate Release                                         
October 25, 2006

Derwood, MD: Taking what could become trash and turning it into eco-friendly cash, Bethesda-based Hallmark Windows and Siding is going green for local families.  

"We are taking the old aluminum siding from a job in Derwood to a recycling center and giving the proceeds to Montgomery County's Agricultural Farm Park," says Meredith W. "Zeke" Hall, Hallmark's president. "The farm park is in Derwood, so the money will be recycled right back into the community. This park is an incredible resource for Montgomery County's children and families."        
                     
Situated along Rock Creek in Derwood, the Agricultural History Farm Park is a 410-acre complex with a farmhouse, barn, assorted farm buildings and an activity center. It provides area families with the opportunity to sample life on the farm from circa 1850 to the present.

"I grew up in rural Frederick County and a lot of what used to be country is now suburbs," Hall says. "It's important that everyone has the chance to experience the roots of our community."        
                                                                      
Bethesda-based Hallmark Windows & Siding LLC, Inc has been doing business in the Washington D.C. Metro area for more than a decade.  It is a family owned business that is dedicated to improving the community.  Hallmark's service area includes Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland.
