Wagman.

Rich Wagman, chairman & CEO of G.A. & F.C. Wagman, states, "Wagman's corporate giving has grown dramatically over the company's 105 years. The family decided to designate this fund so we can better organize our giving and also continue to grow our fund to support the community in the years to come, despite changes that may occur in the economy or our business."

Wagman includes "Community" as one of its six Core Values and actively supports the community in many ways through monetary contributions and organized volunteer programs. Wagman Construction's two major markets are Senior Housing and Urban Redevelopment, both of which are in line with Wagman's core values and the focus on community. Joe Wagman, chairman & CEO of Wagman Construction, Inc., notes, "Wagman has always been a supporter of the community, and our Urban Group is a natural extension which allows us to support redevelopment in downtown areas in other ways. In addition to our financial contributions, projects like the Baseball Stadium, Harp & Fiddle Irish Pub & Restaurant, YMCA West Market Street and Fairmount projects, Crispus Attucks' Greenway Tech Centre, and others all contribute to the revitalization efforts."
