Raising Money for Children’s Health in St. Louis Once again, Cushman & Wakefield supported Ronald McDonald House as the title sponsor for its 34th Annual Cushman & Wakefield/Ronald McDonald House Golf Tournament & Dinner Auction, which took place in St. Louis. Sixty Cushman & Wakefield colleagues in St. Louis volunteered at the event, which brought in more than $1 million that will go toward the nonprofit’s goal of helping sick children and their families stay together. Bowling for a Good Cause in Connecticut In 2019, Cushman & Wakefield was proud to raise $91,000 for First Candle at its 7th Annual Bowl- A-Thon in Norwalk, Connecticut. Over the past seven years, the Bowl-A-Thon has raised over $500,000 for various organizations throughout the community. First Candle is a Connecticut-based 501(c) (3) non-profit committed to ending Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and other sleep-related infant deaths while providing bereavement support to families who have experienced a loss.

Supporting Community in the Twin Cities

More than 80 Cushman & Wakefield employees gathered at Avenues for Homeless Youth, a nonprofit supporting homeless teens and young adults in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, for the local office’s 8th Annual CommUNITY Day celebration. Employees broke into teams and handled deferred maintenance on the Avenues property, while key Cushman & Wakefield vendors also volunteered their services for projects that went beyond general maintenance. The total work was valued at more than $110,000. This project is one of eight projects focused on lower income areas in the Twin Cities that the Cushman & Wakefield Minneapolis- St. Paul office has been involved in. Projects to date are valued at more than $1.5 million in total value.
