To help celebrate our rich history, John R. Greed, Chairman, President, and CEO of Mutual of America Financial Group, has agreed to be the 190th Anniversary honoree. Mutual of America is a major supporter of Rising Ground and its mission and in accepting the honor, Mr. Greed offered his thoughts:

“I salute Rising Ground and its employees for its storied history and tireless commitment to improving the health and well-being of people in the New York City area by providing children, adults and families with the skills and resources to overcome various forms of adversity and find positive paths forward. The idea of actively promoting the welfare of others has always been close to our hearts at Mutual of America. We are proud to be part of an organization that was founded with the belief that every worker, including those who dedicate their lives to nonprofit social welfare organizations, deserves a financially secure future and dignified retirement. We also have been privileged to witness firsthand the life-changing work being done each day by organizations like Rising Ground. This has inspired us and influenced who we are as an organization and as individuals. Like Rising Ground, we are equally proud of our culture of caring, giving back, and making a positive, meaningful difference in our local communities. With this shared purpose, Mutual of America is pleased to support Rising Ground’s year-long celebration of its anniversary, and I am grateful to accept its 190th Anniversary Honoree award.”
