Giving Our All to Give Back.

Community engagement is a core principle at Bulfinch and a long-standing company objective. We don’t just help build our communities, we actively support them through a number of initiatives and programs.

Bulfinch’s employees are encouraged to become involved in activities and philanthropy in our communities. The company created Bulfinch Engage which serves as a vehicle to encourage and empower team members to participate in all areas of civic and charitable engagement.
