On Thursday, September 22, City & State recognized exceptional corporate citizens from labor unions, trade and business associations as well as law, lobbying and consulting firms for their outstanding public service. Capalino is proud to join the rest of this year’s honorees in being recognized for our firm’s efforts in making corporate social responsibility a key part of our business.  The breakfast event, held at New York Law School, featured special guests Jennifer Raab, President of Hunter College, and Peter Meyer, Market President of TD Bank.

“We are delighted to be recognized because CSR is such an important part of our culture at Capalino and integrated across the entire firm. From providing pro-bono services for select nonprofit clients, to encouraging employees to actively serve their communities through board membership and volunteer efforts, to providing financial support to local charities and matching employee donations to their favorite causes, Capalino is deeply committed to giving back,” said James Capalino, Chief Executive Officer of Capalino.
