Our Commitment to Community
All of us want to feel the work we do contributes to bettering our clients and the communities we all chose to call home. At Holmes Riseley, our dedication to improving the lives of those less fortunate is a core part of our beliefs. We take our commitment seriously and are involved in several programs throughout the year to give back.
But our commitment goes beyond just showing up a few times a year - it's a practice we work towards daily to make progress in shaping our community. Our team members regularly contribute to:
-
Board Director positions on various community associations
-
In-person volunteer hours at local community groups on a monthly basis; and
-
Mentorship of youth and young professionals
On average, our team dedicates more than 10 hours each month to programs and organizations in the area. In addition to these volunteer hours, our commitment to community ensures staff members are trained in how to best serve and support the most vulnerable members of our community.
If you are interested in learning about these organizations or wish to contribute through our work, please give us a call today.
One Roof
Our team closes the office to work at One Roof, where we meet with dedicated volunteers and staff members to prepare a meal to serve.
We provide the groceries for the meal and work with the team to prepare it for those in need. In addition, a cash contribution is made to support the on-going work provided by this organization.
Big Brothers, Big Sisters
Our commitment to Big Brothers, Big Sisters goes beyond work done once per year. This past Christmas, we started volunteering with the organization by supporting five families from our community by providing gifts from their wish lists while also meeting hygiene, cleaning and household needs.
Holmes Riseley staff members made individual cash donations, in addition to the donations made by our firm. We were also extremely blessed by the generosity of our clients who also made donations to support this program.
We are continuing our work with Big Brothers, Big Sisters year round participating in the MegaBike fundraiser this spring and another event we are hosting this summer.
Stay tuned for exciting updates this summer when we plan a community carnival for the clients of this organization. If you would like to get involved, give us a call today to find out how you can help support this planned initiative.
