Yeo & Yeo Receives Governor's Service Award
 The Governor's Service Awards are given annually to individuals, businesses, and organizations to acknowledge their commitment to serving their communities through volunteerism. "Volunteers are the heroes of our state and help to create positive change during these challenging times when many of our fellow citizens could benefit from a helping hand," Governor Granholm said. "The Governor's Service Awards are just one small way to say 'thank you' to individuals who give of themselves to help make our state a better place to live, work, and grow.”
The Governor's Service Awards recipients were selected from the finalists in each of eight categories. An objective peer review panel and the board of the Michigan Community Service Commission, the organization that manages the event, selected the finalists and winners from among 120 nominations.
The Corporate Community Leader award presented to Yeo & Yeo honors businesses that demonstrate excellent corporate citizenship by giving back to their community through corporate volunteer programs, monetary contributions, in-kind gifts, and employee-driven volunteer service. “Many businesses are involved in community service projects. We are happy to be one of many companies promoting community service,” said John Kunitzer.
The more than 200 employees housed in nine Yeo & Yeo offices throughout Michigan serve on boards and volunteer for numerous civic, arts and humanities, community, and not-for-profit organizations. Yeo & Yeo employees have contributed more than 15,000 hours of community service during business hours, and more than 13,000 hours have been contributed during employees' personal time.
