Centinel in the community
Here at Centinel, we believe in giving back. We believe in doing well by doing good.
Our advisors and support staff share values that extend well outside the office. Philanthropy is at the heart of our organization, and we exemplify this belief through firm-wide initiatives as well as individual charitable and community involvement opportunities throughout the year.
The Centinel team organizes events throughout the year where our advisors and staff are able to strengthen relationships outside the office while at the same time contributing to charitable causes, both on a local and national level.
In the past, we have partnered with organizations to assist them in achieving the following missions:
• Fueling promising cancer research, support and care programs
• Ending hunger in New England through the distribution of healthy meals
• Assisting those who have served our country and their families through dedicated programs and services
• Providing the essentials to homeless and low-income children
Centinel was honored to be named one of three national finalists for the Invest in Others Charitable Foundation's 2018 Corporate Philanthropy Award!
