Professional Industry Support (Engage) – Engage students and fund scholarships for a variety of relevant professional and technical fields. Support high school level STEM programming with the goal of exposing students to Westwood’s variety of professions and potential career paths that could enhance their future.

Building and Infrastructure (Impact) – Positively impact disadvantaged communities and families by providing financial support for organizations that build homes, schools, and the infrastructure to support safe and sustainable living.

Paul Greenhagen, Westwood’s CEO/President, and Westwood GIVES’ Chairman of the Board sees this as the firm’s logical next phase of giving, “As Westwood has grown, we’ve empowered our people to take a proactive role in giving back at the local level. This has resulted in even more inspiring stories of our team’s ability to touch and improve lives throughout the country, and internationally. And yet, as a team, we continually desire to do more.
