COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

We believe in going above and beyond – not only for our clients, but for our community. Giving back is a core value in our company culture. We believe in sharing our success with others. Here are just some of the ways we pay it forward.

Toys for Tots

For nearly 20 years, we’ve worked with the U.S. Marines Toys for Tots Foundation, a program that collects new, unwrapped toys from October to December and distributes Christmas gifts to children in need within our community. We have held a variety of events to raise money – 100% of which goes to purchasing toys.

Gavel Cares

We donate the excess hotel and airplane toiletries from our travel incentive programs and used cell phones to local women’s shelters. We make sure we find ways to use any extra items we have from our meetings or events that can be donated to those in need.
