RHSB's Corporate Culture of Giving

RHSB's Corporate Culture of Giving

by Laura Harshbarger

It has been a wonderful experience partnering with CFT from an Engagement Captain perspective. Roach Howard Smith & Barton has a corporate culture of giving back to our community.

CFT has made it even easier for a company of our size, with approximately 60 employees, to be good corporate citizens and continue our history of helping our community. CFT allows us many more opportunities throughout the year to become involved in donating or volunteering than we could plan and organize on our own.

The team building of employees from different departments within our organization working alongside each other at volunteer events is invaluable. Another advantage is working alongside other member companies and the networking that this allows. CFT has helped us to increase our cash donations, in-kind donations and volunteer hours since becoming a member company. CFT truly does make it easy to be good corporate citizens.

The Fallen Family Fund at CFT supports Freedom Day

“It’s been the greatest gift,” said Nancy. “I feel like what granddad gave us was an opportunity – an opportunity to make a difference and to explore within ourselves something he had already figured out: lifting up the people around you is what matters most. He knew that the fund could bring good to others but also to us as we practiced generosity together.”
