Rochester, N.Y., August 10, 2020 – For the third consecutive year, employees from The Bonadio Group joined together for the firm’s annual Purpose Day, donating their time to non-profit organizations. This year, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the firm leveraged virtual volunteering opportunities with local and national organizations to keep employees and communities safe while giving back to some deserving causes.
Overall, 581 employees from The Bonadio Group volunteered at 14 regional and national organizations, including Operation Gratitude and United Nations Online Volunteers. Activities included ordering supplies, creating cards and letters for essential workers, and even signing up to be an online tutor for students.
“In these challenging times, it is more important than ever to give back to the organizations that serve our communities,” said Bruce Zicari, CEO, The Bonadio Group. “We’re proud to have been able to continue our Purpose Day tradition this year, supporting those who are providing critical services throughout the pandemic and beyond, while keeping our people, clients and communities safe through a virtual volunteering approach.”
Employees also had an option to donate to these organizations through a one-time payroll deduction, raising a total of $14,639, which was matched with a donation from the firm.
