The Joseph A. Cekola Memorial Fund

Joseph A. Cekola’s (Big Joe’s) eldest son Nick was developmentally disabled, and was his closest confidant and friend. Big Joe valued the family unit, and worked tirelessly to keep his family intact, despite doctors’ recommendations to institutionalize Nick.

This unwavering support of family and others’ circumstances (especially those in similar family situations) lead to the Cekola children establishing a fund at the Kalamazoo Community Foundation in their father’s name. The Joseph A. Cekola Memorial Fund offers support to families of the developmentally disabled, and is just one way that the people behind Imperial work to support our communities.

Imperial Beverage employees are encouraged to participate in activities they believe will improve
the quality of life in their communities. Every employee is allowed one paid day each year to
volunteer at the charity or organization of their choice. Group volunteering events are also organized beyond scheduled work hours to encourage giving as a team.
