Giving back is a critical part of our culture.
Creating meaning in everything we do is an essential part of our work. The Giving Room is a place where our teams and clients come together to support causes we believe in. We often spend a week or two in the cities where our events take place. These communities become our temporary homes. We feel strongly that we want to make a difference while there by helping in ways that aren’t required by our “day job.”
In each city we visit, The Giving Room highlights two local charities. Our goal is to create awareness for these organizations and empower our onsite teams to connect with others on a more meaningful level. City by city, we aim to make an impact and leave things just a little better than we found them.
