In short, these companies are putting themselves at the center of change to create more enduring and sustainable business models.

“We are thrilled to be recognized in the Civic 50. It is in our firm’s DNA to give back wholeheartedly to our profession and our community. Our team feels a tremendous responsibility to make our community better and we demonstrate this belief through giving back in both action and dollars,” stated Tom Umberg, co-founding partner.
