Community Involvement

Creating opportunities for our communities is not just a goal for CohnReznick. It’s a core component of our mission statement. Whether it’s conducting charitable giving programs in our neighborhoods or supporting national charities in fulfilling their missions, CohnReznick is active. What do you care about? Let’s make a difference.

CohnReznick CARES

Charitable involvement is part of our culture. All employees from every level in our firm participate in initiatives through CohnReznick CARES — our platform dedicated to Community, Advocacy, Responsibility, Education, and Service. The scale of our efforts is such that all activities fall under the stewardship of CohnReznick's National CohnReznick CARES Committee which ensures that our undertakings are successful.

25 Impactful Ways to Pay It Forward with $25

Inspired by the movie about a boy who does good deeds and asks recipients to do good for others in return, CohnReznick created its Pay It Forward initiative. Every year, the Firm gives employees $25 extra in their paychecks and asks that they use the money to make a difference in their communities. Risa Lavine, CohnReznick Chief of Staff, calls it an “act of kindness initiative that shows all levels of giving can make a meaningful impact.”

Pay It Forward coincides with CohnReznick Day (October 10), a day the Firm sets aside to recognize its people, clients, and communities. It’s our way of celebrating our Firm by giving back to others.
