Spotlight: Community Involvement

At Commercial Investigations LLC one of our core values is to provide positive community involvement through charity and corporate giving with both time and money. Our CI team loves being involved and attending events to show our support (in person). But given the circumstances, we had to find other ways to participate in giving back to the community!

In honor of National Pet Day, in April, we made two monetary donations honoring all of our animal enthusiasts to two wonderful organizations: Equine Advocates & Pooches Out of Puerto Rico (POOPR). Equine Advocates is an equine protection organization. They are a sanctuary which rescues horses and other equines from slaughter, abuse, and neglect that was established right here in upstate New York, they are a "haven for horses". Pooches out of Puerto Rico (POOPR) is a dog rescue, rescuing dogs who were abandoned, surrendered, or put into high risk shelters in Puerto Rico and finding them their ‘furever’ homes here in New York. One of our own CI team members recently adopted their pooch, Lacy, through POOPR, Lacy is now living her best puppy life with lots of love and cuddles!

Lastly, May is National Foster Care Awareness month. To support Berkshire Farm Center & Services for Youth several members of the CI team made a monetary donation to their Foster Hope Walk / Run event, which raised money to help provide care for children in the foster care system and to help children cope with traumatic events, along with ‘Going Purple’ at one of our team meetings to show our effort in support to help raise awareness for foster parents across NYS.
