We get it – investing in the communities we serve is key to our company’s culture and success. In the past quarter, we’ve had a blast attending a bunch of events we haven’t had the chance to share yet. These investments are right on track with our strategic goals, and they help us build awesome relationships with our partners while making a positive impact in the communities where we work and live.
