corporate responsibility
At baer architecture group, inc., we live by our core values of
community building, strengthening our relationships, and working
towards a sustainable environment not only with our clients, but
just as importantly, within our company and the community as a
whole.
Our offices are designed and built using green materials, such as
low-VOC paints, and furnished with recycled office furniture.
We use only recycled paper and paper products, and natural cleaning
products. We also have an in-house recycling program for our
office waste.
We support community-building initiatives within our corporate
culture by sponsoring each of our employees as they donate up to one
week or 3% of their billable hours per calendar year to volunteer
with a community nonprofit organization of their choosing.
Recent examples include traveling to Mississippi to build homes with
Habitat for Humanity, chairing board activities to strengthen the
Worcester Center for Crafts, and coordinating service initiatives
with various international relief organizations such as Oxfam and
Heifer Project International. Please check our website in the
coming months for additional volunteer projects we’ve undertaken!
