People & Purpose

IMPACT

[image: LAVIDGE IMPACT Giving & Caring with Passion]

We’re not afraid to show our softer side. Or our mushy, caring, crying side.

We believe it is important to be involved within our community and give back.[2] It’s something that is a part of an established employee-volunteer program called IMPACT. Throughout the year, everyone can dedicate a portion of their time to volunteer with the IMPACT team at different events.[2][3]
