Making a positive impact is part of our firm’s DNA, which is why we make it easy for employees to volunteer and give back to the communities where they live and work.

- Colleagues in Bogota worked with Pocalana, a homeless services organization that provides shelter, meals, and support.
- Toronto employees sorted food donations at the Daily Bread Food Bank and prepped and served meals at the Woodgreen Foundation.
- Our Tokyo team prepped and served meals at Second Harvest Japan.
- Hong Kong colleagues helped prepare hot and healthy meals at the Foodlink Foundation.
- Our Seoul team supported Sarangbat, an organization that provides food to those in need.
