Doing Well by Doing Good


Building on Our Associates' Generosity


One of the most successful avenues of Baird's community involvement continues to be the Baird Foundation Associate Match Program, which experienced a record‐setting year in 2022. Nearly three quarters of eligible associates used their Associate Match to make matching gifts. Baird Foundation specifically supports nonprofits with a focus on health and human services, education, and the arts, especially organizations where associates are actively involved. In addition to the Associate Match Program, we also hold Baird Gives Back Week, which gives associates a chance to donate their time to local organizations as well.
