Community Involvement
Whether it is through our regional offices, with our clients and project teams, or through fundraising activities at our company meetings, Clarkston consultants are dedicated to giving back to the communities where they live and work.
Clarkston stewards coordinate community outreach activities and support a number of charitable events year-round that fight disease, promote good health, provide food and shelter, serve the underprivileged, and protect the environment. In addition, Clarkston Consulting’s charitable contributions program matches employee charitable contributions dollar-for-dollar up to $2,000 per individual, per year. Almost 200 organizations have received matching funds in the last five years.
