Philanthropy With Purpose

At McCord Research, success is measured not only by the products and technologies we develop, but also by the positive impact we create beyond our business. Giving back has long been part of our commitment to advancing science, supporting education, and strengthening the communities that have helped shape our company.

A significant example of that commitment is the support provided by McCord Research founders Drs. Jim and Darlene McCord to the University of Iowa.

Their philanthropic contributions include $1.3 million to support university research and $1 million to support the Iowa football program’s development of student-athletes both on the field and as members of the community.

These gifts reflect the same purpose that guides McCord Research: helping people and organizations overcome challenges, pursue meaningful progress, and create lasting results.

Philanthropy is not viewed as a single act. It is an ongoing responsibility woven into the McCord legacy. Through continued support of research, education, healthcare initiatives, and community organizations, McCord Research seeks to encourage positive change and invest in opportunities that can benefit future generations.

Innovation creates progress. Generosity helps that progress reach further.
