Giving Back to Our Communities
Giving back to the communities we serve is a fundamental aspect of our culture. In 2018, we established the Yeo & Yeo Foundation, an employee-run organization dedicated to giving time, talent and financial support to charitable causes throughout Michigan. Fostering a culture of community service and volunteerism among all Yeo & Yeo employees firm-wide is at the core of the Foundation’s objectives. Through the Foundation, we support and serve organizations that Yeo & Yeo associates are personally involved in or passionate about.
We are community builders.
At Yeo & Yeo, we believe that we are only as strong as the communities we serve. Through the Foundation, we uplift our communities and people, leading to a happier, healthier, stronger Michigan. We are grateful for the opportunity to help.
Fulfilling Our Mission
The Foundation supports organizations that our associates across all Yeo & Yeo companies are personally involved in or passionate about. Therefore, all donation requests are sponsored by Yeo & Yeo employees. When reviewing donation requests, the Grants Committee and the Foundation Board consider factors such as the mission and purpose of the requesting organization, the intended use of funds and the potential impact of the Foundation’s support. We are proud to say that our employees donate their time, talent and financial support to more than 200 different community service organizations throughout Michigan.
“Our culture of giving back started with the Yeo family more than 90 years ago. They believed it was vital to give back to the communities in which we live, work and play. Today, we are proud to continue their legacy through the Yeo & Yeo Foundation. The Foundation gives each employee an opportunity to support organizations through volunteerism and financial gifts. We believe that we are only as strong as the communities we serve. Through the Foundation, we uplift our communities’ organizations and people, leading to a happier, healthier, stronger Michigan.”
