We support our employees’ passion for community service. Our employees have unique abilities that can add value to their communities, and they want to share their skills with others in need. Our Thornton Tomasetti Gives Back program compensates employees with paid hours and other support for helping schoolchildren through the ACE Mentor Program, volunteering for local organizations and helping disadvantaged communities. We partner with Bridges to Prosperity to build footbridges in rural communities to bolster economic development. Our charitable giving benefits many of the organizations where we volunteer and supports disaster-relief efforts, as well as the Thornton Tomasetti Foundation.
