1847Financial-Utah Firm Service Project: A Commitment to Community and Collaboration


At 1847Financial, our dedication extends beyond providing high-quality financial services—we are deeply committed to community involvement and making a tangible difference in the lives of those around us. Every four months, our team at 1847Financial-Utah comes together to engage in an agency service project that fosters team spirit and impacts our local community meaningfully.

The Impact of Service: Packing Lunches at the Five.12 Foundation

Our most recent project took place at the Five.12 Foundation, an organization devoted to ensuring that elementary-aged school children in our local area do not go hungry over the weekend. Many people are unaware that while these children receive free breakfast and lunch at school during weekdays, their nutritional needs extend beyond the school week. The weekends can be challenging, with some children having little to no food at home.

Understanding this critical need, our team and families gathered in a spirited event where we packed over 3,000 lunches. These lunches are crucial; they represent more than just meals—they symbolize hope and the community's commitment to its youngest members.

A Family Affair: Building Bonds Through Giving

What set this project apart was the involvement of our entire families. It transformed the service day into a corporate responsibility activity and a personal, hands-on experience that allowed our children to participate in acts of kindness and community service. The laughter, teamwork, and busy hands made the day productive and incredibly joyful.

This project allowed our team members to teach their children the values of generosity, teamwork, and compassion. It was heartwarming to see the impact of these lessons taking shape right in front of us, as children as young as five years old understood the importance of helping their peers.

Looking Ahead: Continuing the Tradition

Due to the overwhelming positive feedback from our team and their families, we are excited to announce that we will repeat this project in the fall. The joy and community spirit experienced during this event have inspired us to continue making this a regular part of our agency service projects.

Each service day reminds us of the powerful impact we can have when we come together. It reinforces our belief at 1847Financial that by supporting each other and our communities, we are making lives better because we care.
