Philanthropy
Philanthropy

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!

Massachusetts Military Heroes Fund
In observation of Memorial Day, the team from Centinel Financial Group spent the day planting flags on Boston Common with the Massachusetts Military Heroes Fund. Each of the 37,000+ flags represents a brave service member who gave their life defending our country since the Revolutionary War. The result was a beautiful flag garden in their honor, created by the families of military heroes, veterans and fellow volunteers.

Joe Andruzzi Foundation
Centinel Financial Group’s 2019 Bowling Bash at Splitsville Patriot Place was held to raise awareness and funds for the Joe Andruzzi Foundation. The (Up)Beat Cancer Initiative helps cancer patients in treatment and their families during what can be the most stressful and challenging time of their lives. It's always a pleasure spending time with three-time Super Bowl champion and philanthropist Joe Andruzzi!

Cradles to Crayons Giving Factory
We always enjoy our time at Cradles to Crayons Massachusetts! During our 2019 volunteer event we were able to package clothing, school supplies and basic necessities for 126 children in the Boston area!

Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund
The 2019 CFG Open was held to benefit the Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund! Centinel advisors and team members enjoyed a fun day at Indian Pond Country Club and raised funds for the organization, which seeks to honor the fallen service members of Massachusetts by providing educational assistance grants to their children.

"Cater a Meal" at Rosie's Place Women's Shelter
Centinel Financial Group was proud to partner with Rosie's Place, an organization in Boston’s South End providing meals and shelter to over 12,000 women a year in the Greater Boston area. Thanks to everyone’s participation, we were able to prepare and serve meals to over 120 women and children!

Marine Toys for Tots Foundation
Centinel advisors and business partners collected over 100 toys during our annual CFG Holiday Celebration in support of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation! Special thanks to Sgt Nicholas Miller, Sgt Andre Lake, and PFC Daniel Targett of the 1st Battalion 25th Marines Association for spending the evening with us collecting toys for underprivileged children in the Boston area.
