Evoke Research and Consulting is proud of its strong commitment to
the communities where we live and work. We believe that our
responsibilities do not end with client services and that we must all
invest time and energy to make a positive impact that extends beyond
the corporate balance sheet. The Evoke managing partners lead the way
for their employees, actively participating in a variety of volunteer
programs and charitable organizations.
As part of our volunteer activities, the Evoke Team held its second volunteer event of sending care packages to our troops overseas via
AnySoldier.com
. Thank you to everyone that participated! Evoke is extremely proud of the support we are providing to troops serving our country. Through your efforts, Evoke was able to several dozen boxes to Marines serving in Afghanistan that included iPod touches. Evoke is also coordinating efforts through
Operation Second Chance
(OSC). We are extremely grateful to Cindy Mcgrew and the people from OSC who contributed 30 iPod Touches!! The packages were sent to SSgt Ramirez and her company, the 1st Marine Logistics Group (1st MLG) Supply Company, to help replenish personal items and supplies lost during a devastatingfire at Camp Le atherneck in May.
In addition to volunteer activities, we have been honored to make
corporate contributions, often matching
employee contributions, to numerous local charitable organizations.
