Jeans Friday
Marcum’s South Florida offices participate in a Firmwide fundraising program called Jeans Fridays. On the last Friday of each month, employees are permitted to “dress down” for work, in exchange for a voluntary $5 contribution.
Beneficiary charities are suggested by employees at each office at the beginning of the year, and 12 are selected. It is a fun and effortless way to raise extra funding for local nonprofit organizations in Marcum communities. |
