been active in giving back to our local communities. Whether it involves feeding the hungry, visiting hospitalized children, supporting our troops around the world, helping out after natural disasters, or donating gifts to the needy at Holiday time, our teams tirelessly and generously聽give their time and resources to help out those in need. Below are just a few examples of instances when we were lucky enough to have the privilege of Giving Back:</p> <div class="wp-block-columns has-3-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"><div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="300" height="300" src="https://www.accessintel.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Rockville-2023-Sheppard-Pratt.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-4986"/></figure></div> <p>Our Rockville team volunteered with <a href="https://www.sheppardpratt.org/">Sheppard Pratt</a> at the annual Christmas Tree Event during 2023 #volunteer week.

They team up with <a href="https://www.christmastreesantas.org/">Christmas Tree Santas</a>, another non-profit, that donates trees, ornaments, lights and stands to local families. Parents come with their children to pick out a tree, have some lunch and snacks, and the kids can participate in all kinds of arts and crafts projects.
