The CIVIC 50 Hampton Roads

The Civic 50 Hampton Roads, an initiative by Points of Light in collaboration with VOLUNTEER Hampton Roads, honors the top 50 companies in Hampton Roads for their community engagement. This recognition is based on an annual assessment of each company's corporate social impact. The 2024 assessment period is open until July 15.

Contact Alana Slaughter with any questions about the assessment at aslaughter@volunteerhr.org.
