How It Began
From the beginning, Armanino has embodied a robust culture of giving back
Supporting charitable organizations with donations of money and volunteerism, the Armanino Foundation was created in October 2016 to provide staff, partners and the Armanino firm, as well as clients, vendors and friends of the firm, a formal organization for community giving.



Bold Approach
We are unique from other foundations

Democracy |
Team members can participate as much or as little as they wish. We involve everyone at Armanino in our programs, giving them the opportunity to nominate their favorite nonprofit for community service and grant support by the Armanino Foundation. | |

Crowdsourcing |
The vast majority of funding for the Armanino Foundation comes from our partners and staff. Team members pick the organizations that we volunteer with and give grants to. | |

The Ripple Effect |
We are passionate about using our resources to honor the nonprofit organizations that matter most to our team members. Making smaller $500-$3,000 grants to multiple organizations, in the communities where our team members work and live, magnifies the impact they can make as individuals. |
TRACKABLE & TRANSPARENT
Where the money goes
The Armanino Foundation empowers our team members to influence its impact based on their passions through community service, donations, and service as leaders. Staff and partners from all the firm’s major offices and remote locations comprise the Community Service, Financial Literacy, Grants, and Volunteer Vacations Committees and the eleven-member board that carry out the Armanino Foundation mission.
