Facilities Management for Good

By aligning purpose with profit and focusing on our vision “to build a conscious business that inspires future humanitarian leaders,” we believe we are making a difference.

Through our social impact programming, we partner with trusted and valuable nonprofits that share our growing for good commitment to help families in need of housing, food, and educational opportunities. We also partner with nonprofits that seek to preserve the environment and elevate our industry.

Our Growing for Good Culture

The #BeBetter team is dedicated to our core value to #BeAltruistic. With over 2,000 hours of volunteering, we have been able to have a positive impact and do our part to support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

During our annual #BeBetter week, which celebrates the launch of Branded Group, team members volunteer for a nonprofit of their choice. In 2022, sixteen organizations across the country benefitted from our contributions of time and donations.

Last year, creative 5K events raised nearly $10,000 for The Priority Center in Orange County, California and Wounded Warrior Carry Forward initiatives.

For those team members who complete their tool belts, Branded Group makes a donation to their favorite non-profits, which have included the American Diabetes Association and Operation Underground Railroad.
