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.
Mike Trevillian has been volunteering at Morning Dove Therapeutic Riding for 5 years. Here's what he has to say about his experience: "It has been a great experience working with the children. Seeing how the program helps them and the excitement on their faces has blessed me and changed my life forever!”
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.
An essential component of corporate giving, especially during a challenging year like 2020, proved to be growing employee engagement in philanthropy, volunteerism, and community involvement. To do this, community-minded employers retooled their approach to find meaningful ways to aid in the crisis while helping their staff safely donate their time, talent, and treasure.
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.
