“Here at Beacon Hill, we are deeply committed to empowering our employees to give back and make a positive impact in their communities,” stated Emma Keery, Marketing Coordinator at Beacon Hill. “On top of region-focused philanthropic outings, such as providing holiday gifts to children in need through The Home for Little Wanderers in Boston or packing pallets of food for families facing food insecurity at Loaves and Fish in Charlotte, Beacon Hill has also started a quarterly company-wide initiative for various community outreach projects. For our first quarter outreach in 2024, we focused on the Senior Citizen Community by sending handwritten letters to seniors in nursing home who are suffering from isolation.”

“Beacon Hill’s commitment to giving back to the greater community is derived directly from our founding mission: to embody trust, decency, honesty and mutual respect,” Emma explained. “As a whole, these principles are vital to us both inside and outside of our work functions. In the broadest sense, the ongoing goal and driving passion of our organization is to help people, and in doing so, to create a brighter future. Thus, if we are given an opportunity to serve the community beyond just helping people find jobs, we will always take it. Giving back at work is important to our organization not only for the positive impact it has on communities and individuals but also for the benefits it brings to the company and the employees within it, including employee engagement and personal and professional growth.”
