Community Involvement

7th Annual ALS CEO Soak

In the seventh year of the CEO Soak in Pittsburgh, Baird raised over $300,000 to help patients and their families struggling with ALS. Baird was a title sponsor and our very own, Craig Tillotson participated in the soak at the PPG Fountain downtown Pittsburgh. We are very thankful for our continued partnership with The ALS Association.

A Caring Community Partner

Baird has a long tradition of giving back in the communities where our associates live and work, and many give generously of their time, talents and personal resources to local organizations. Our associates also support annual firm level campaigns to raise funds for local and national charities. And our Baird Foundation provides financial support for causes ranging from fighting homelessness and hunger to promoting education and the arts.

Other ways Baird supports associates’ passion for giving back include Baird Gives Back Week; an event encouraging associates to team up in their communities and volunteer in a range of activities, including tutoring students, working with seniors, building homes and cleaning up parks.
