Whittlesey Dedicates Annual Community Day to Diverse Volunteer Efforts Across the Area
June 22, 2023
Whittlesey, the largest Connecticut‐Based accounting firm, continues its long‐standing tradition of community service through a range of projects across Connecticut and Western Massachusetts. For more than a decade, Whittlesey volunteers have stepped away from their desks to participate in various projects that directly affect the communities where they live and work.
This year, more than 100 Whittlesey team members collaborated with the Bushnell Park Foundation, the Diaper Bank of Connecticut, and the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Holyoke in a day dedicated to creating positive and tangible impacts within our local communities.
At Bushnell Park and the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Holyoke, teams engaged in general park clean‐ up efforts, including spreading mulch, planting new flower beds, and repairing and painting fences. Meanwhile, volunteers at the Diaper Bank of Connecticut assisted in sorting and repackaging diapers before distributing them to families in need.
"Our commitment to service extends far beyond our professional obligations," says Drew Andrews, CEO and Managing Partner at Whittlesey. "We believe in giving back to the communities we are part of, and our annual Community Day is a testament to this belief. We are honored to partner with these remarkable organizations this year and look forward to the impact we can make together."
Whittlesey's Community Day is part of a series of initiatives the firm undertakes throughout the year, emphasizing its core belief in the power of community engagement. The firm takes pride in its enduring partnerships with diverse nonprofit organizations and the real‐world impacts they create together.
