As part of the Community IMPACT Awards, Deloitte will also present the David Suarez Memorial Trophy for overall excellence in community involvement to its Chicago office. Our colleague, David Suarez, was passionate about community service and this recognition celebrates the life he lived and lost on September 11, 2001.
"At Deloitte, we believe we have a responsibility to our communities. Volunteering is part of our culture; and many of our people are role models in the community," said James H. Quigley, CEO of Deloitte & Touche USA LLP. "We are proud to honor the 2004 recipients of our Community IMPACT Awards, for the impact they have, both on the non-profit organizations with whom they work and the colleagues they inspire."
In the spirit of its commitment to community service, Deloitte recently held IMPACT Day, its national day of volunteering. Nearly 20,000 employees in the United States took the opportunity to set aside their work for the day and volunteer in the community. Deloitte is widely recognized as a leader in groundbreaking human resource programs and community involvement. Known as a place where the best choose to be, Deloitte fosters a culture that is inclusive, diverse, open and flexible. Deloitte considers community involvement a business imperative and encourages its people to volunteer their time and talent.
