Buckingham Foundation works to initiate and implement positive change in communities tied to Buckingham Companies. We strive to make a difference where our employees work, our residents live and in the communities we build.
omeAid Atlanta recently wrapped up its 21st Annual Essentials Drive to collect diapers, baby wipes, and more for young families experiencing or at risk of homelessness in metro Atlanta. David Parente & the Rosemont Vining's team hosted a donation drive at their site, which Buckingham Foundation helped support by donating diapers and wipes.
Buckingham Builders were at it again for our fourth year with the Greater Indy Habitat for Humanity Women Build.
We take Earth Day and sustainability seriously at Buckingham. Our team members accomplished the equivalent of 6 weeks’ worth of landscaping, mulching, and litter clean-up along the Indianapolis Cultural Trail to close out our Annual Leadership Conference. Thank you for your commitment to making a difference in the communities we live and work in! Additional shout out to Mainscape & Joe Miller for generously donating the mulch.
The Cabaret is beyond thrilled to introduce a brand-new outdoor experience to the Indy community this July: The Alley at Library Square. The Alley, presented in partnership with the Arts Council of Indianapolis and Buckingham Companies and funded by Lilly Endowment, was created to be a collaborative outdoor gathering space where guests can experience live music – which will be part of The Cabaret’s newest performance series, The Alley Sessions – and local art in a casual setting.
On Friday, May 21 the Buckingham Builders gathered with passion and determination. Together, the team raised the internal and external walls of April and Neontae’s homes. We also learned the Buckingham Builders are currently the TOP fundraising team raising $15,704 so far. Five members of the team raised over $1,000!
We are excited to launch Move for Hunger, a national program which addresses food insecurity and food waste, on April 1. We will be launching this initiative at seven Buckingham sites for a pilot program and will evaluate the initiative throughout the year to assess expanding the program to other sites.
2019 was another busy year for Buckingham Foundation! From our QPR training in the first quarter to our annual Day of Service at the end of the year, our Buckingham team members were hard at work giving back to the communities that Buckingham Companies has a presence in. See the impact we made in one year.
