HARGROVE FOUNDATION REACHES $2MM GIVING MILESTONE

The Hargrove Foundation has reached a milestone in giving as of spring 2021 – they have now contributed over $2 million dollars to charitable causes across the country! Since inception in 2012, the Hargrove Foundation has been on a mission to support groups and organizations making a difference in the areas of health and human services, education, arts and culture, and qualified sports activities. Reaching this milestone would not be possible without the support of Hargrove Teammates and partners in all Hargrove office locations.

“We are excited to reach this point in our charitable giving,” says Micki Kohn, President of the Board for the Hargrove Foundation. “It’s incredible to think of the thousands of lives that have been positively impacted by the $2.1MM we’ve now funneled back to our communities.”

The Hargrove Foundation hosts several events across the country each year to raise funds and awareness including fishing rodeos, golf tournaments, auctions, block parties, and an annual black-tie Gala event. The Hargrove Foundation was originally founded after Hargrove realized a desire to mobilize in support of victims when several tornadoes devastated northern Alabama in 2011. Disaster relief efforts remains paramount to our Team, having supported victims of many flooding and hurricane disasters over the last decade, and having given $100,000 in COVID-19 relief.

“We look forward to continuing to give back to the communities that surround our 16 offices and beyond,” says Ralph A. Hargrove, President and CEO of Hargrove Engineers + Constructors. “As our family of companies continues to grow and serve clients in new areas, it also creates opportunities to show leadership and renew our Team’s passion for community outreach.”
