Buffalo Corporate Citizenship / Partners in Philanthropy Awards

Overview

Buffalo Business First’s Corporate Citizenship / Partners in Philanthropy program recognizes companies in the Buffalo-Niagara region for outstanding corporate giving, employee volunteerism and overall community impact. Run by the local Business First newsroom (part of The Business Journals network), it highlights firms that integrate philanthropy and social responsibility into their core business. Companies pursue it for regional visibility among peers, community partners and talent, and it carries editorial credibility as selections are made by the publication rather than as a pay-to-play sponsorship package.

• Organization must have significant operations or a primary office in the Buffalo-Niagara / Western New York region
• Must be a for-profit company or corporate entity (not an individual) engaged in corporate philanthropy or community initiatives
• Must provide information on charitable contributions, volunteer programs, and community impact during the specified qualifying period
