Just as we strive to conduct our business with the highest integrity, GCG is committed to fulfilling social responsibilities as a conscientious corporate citizen and respecting people in our workplace and in our community at large.
GCG Cares
We have long recognized our responsibility to the communities where we do business and to others around us, and we encourage supporting the many organizations whose mission is to help underserved segments of society.
GCG and its staff contribute time and money and raise awareness for many charitable organizations focused on disease research; helping others in need, such as women and children; and helping those who have suffered from natural disasters.
Charitable organizations we have supported include the following:
- Autism Speaks, to increase awareness and treatment of various autism spectrum disorders.
- Companions in Courage, to help build interactive playrooms in hospitals throughout North America.
- Crime Stoppers, to encourage and assist the growth of community and school programs throughout the United States.
- InMotion, to help women of low-income who need free legal services in matrimonial, family and immigration law.
- Make-A-Wish Foundation, to give hope, strength and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
- MFY Legal Services, Inc., to help promote the principle of equal access to justice in community organizations and to provide free civil legal assistance to those in need.
- International Myeloma Foundation, to help improve the quality of life of myeloma patients and work towards prevention and a cure.
- Susan G. Komen for the Cure, to raise awareness and help find a cure to end breast cancer.
We have supported many other causes as well, including: the American Cancer Society, American Red Cross, Catholic Big Sisters, Children’s Defense Fund, City Year, Legal Aid Society, Solomon Schechter Schools, Winthrop University Hospital, and Women Lawyers Association.
Our charitable work has also included providing administrative services on a pro bono basis. For example, GCG is currently serving as the claims administrator, and is providing comprehensive services, in a settlement involving distributions to class members who were victims of racial discrimination.
Diversity in the Workplace
GCG supports a workplace that values the differences in people, in their heritage, their beliefs and their nationalities. We know that our people are our greatest asset. We encourage our personnel to find the right balance in their lives between work life and personal life and to advance their personal development through education and training.
