Best Practices Road Show
"The best practices roadshow is a terrific way to learn what your community needs and specific ways your company can help. I got tremendous value from the experience, insights, and tips that my peers from other organizations brought to the session."
- Associate Director, National Community Involvement, KPMG LLP

"This was a great seminar! The roadshow provided an opportunity to learn the characteristics of Companies that Care with an emphasis on getting involved in community endeavors. The discussions offered valuable insights on the difference between being a 'do-gooder' and doing good...and how companies must begin to view their relationships with the community and charitable organizations differently. It's not enough to choose a cause and donate time or resources to it. For the success of the community, we must partner with community organizations and trust their expertise. Thanks for providing an open forum to exchange ideas on this important subject."
- Director, Employee Communications, Teleflex Medical

Spring Back to Life National Initiative
"We are very excited to have participated in the Companies That Care 2006 Spring Back to Life campaign, to provide new athletic and playground equipment to Mississippi schools devastated by Hurricane Katrina. This is one of the many ways Convergint gives back to the community. Each of our offices was challenged to think of creative ways to raise money. In total, we raised $7,745!! That far exceeded our internal goals. Each of the events turned out to be a great time!"
