#CREACares Initiatives
CREAConnect In Action
Some of our best work takes place outside of the office: volunteering time & efforts, donating resources & committing to expanding our perspectives to forge deeper connections.
Employee Engagement & Volunteerism
CREA Volunteering
We encourage employees to support causes and organizations by providing paid Volunteer Time Off, in addition to our company-wide CREACares Day of volunteering. Our impact on communities is the most capable when we're able to interact closely, and we pursue work on the ground to fill the needs of our neighbors.
Partnerships
We’re proud to partner with local nonprofits that align with our goals. From partnering with organizations local to our offices to coordinate volunteering opportunities, to raising funds and gathering items of need for donation, partnerships are a key aspect of our outreach.
Contributions & Matching
Corporate Contributions
CREA provides corporate contributions to various organizations that create meaningful change in their fields. Instead of traditional holiday gifting, we focus on holiday giving to non-profit partners that support affordable housing and the communities they serve.
Donation Matching
We don’t just encourage generosity in our employees – we endorse it. The CREACares matching gifts program was created for the benefit of CREA employees and the communities in which we work, live and play. CREA team members have their charitable contributions matched, doubling the impact where it matters.
Continual Learning & Connection
CREA aims to inspire employees to engage actively with our mission and think critically about our work. Through initiatives like company-wide CREALive weeks, departmental and cross-departmental summits, as well as the CREAConnect Board and Employee Resource Groups, we bring together individuals from across our offices to thoughtfully discuss topics that not only impact our day-to-day processes and procedures, but also the greater impact we can create. Our coordinated engagement efforts ensure that the overarching goals of our mission remain a priority.
