Giving back so others can move forward.
Our Social Purpose program gives us the chance to contribute to our communities in more personal ways. We provide pro bono professional services to nonprofits for whom such services would otherwise be out of reach. Our projects address human needs like affordable housing, childcare, healthcare, and education.
At the same time, we also like to roll up our sleeves and get involved in hands-on volunteer work. We serve meals at food pantries, organize coat drives, participate in community gardening, and lead fundraisers, to name a few activities. Whether it’s design or “sweat equity,” we’re inspired by the power of human connection.
From housing security to healthcare access, the projects covered in “Together, We Design” feature everyday heroes making a positive difference in their communities.
