Recycled Generosity Helps Community Thrive When Mr. Madewell handed his battery recycling company in Jones, Oklahoma, off to Carmalieta Wells and Bill Dean, he also passed down a legacy of doing good. To help continue his tradition, the new owners established a charitable fund at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation to support educational and civic initiatives throughout the Jones community. “A need arises and we figure out how to meet it head on,” said Carmalieta. Most recently, the company used the fund to support a building addition for the Jones Volunteer Fire Department. “We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without the help of Madewell & Madewell,” said Jones firefighter Mark Taylor. “They’ve given so much and are so supportive of this community.” Annual Report 2018
