BDO USA Recognized by Points of Light as One of the 50 Most Community-minded Companies in the United States
BDO USA, one of the nation’s leading accounting and advisory firms, today announced it has been named a 2025 honoree of The Civic 50 by Points of Light – the world’s largest organization dedicated to increasing volunteering. This award recognizes the top community-minded companies in the United States as determined by an annual survey.
“Our core purpose is helping people thrive every day — this includes not only our professionals and clients but also the people who make up the communities in which we live and work,” said Cathy Moy, BDO USA Chief People Officer. “This recognition is a testament to our people who embody a culture of stewardship by championing community care and well-being across the country.”
The firm’s social impact program, BDO Counts, is employee-driven and focuses on four cause areas chosen by its professionals: Children & Youth, Education & Literacy, Human Rights and Environment. Since launching its evolved social impact strategy in 2023, BDO has introduced a variety of new programs and initiatives. Most notably, the firm announced its first national nonprofit cause partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, which aims to create a pathway to economic empowerment and brighter prospects for the next generation through mentorship.
“This is an exciting achievement and underscores the significant strides our firm has made in advancing our social impact strategy,” said Chad Gabriel, Social Impact Senior Director at BDO USA. “I’m incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together and look forward to continuing our efforts to drive meaningful change in our communities.”
For more than a decade, The Civic 50 has served as the national standard for corporate citizenship and showcases how leading companies are moving social impact and community to the core of their business. This comprehensive survey for companies with annual revenues of at least $1 billion evaluates the scale, sophistication and impact of their employee volunteering, community engagement and corporate philanthropy work.
“In an ever-evolving landscape, companies are looking to ensure that they can meet the needs of their communities, customers, and stakeholders,” said Jennifer Sirangelo, president and CEO, Points of Light. “Companies like BDO are leading the way in showing how social impact benefits their employees’ well-being, strengthens the communities where they do business, and brings value and meaning to their work. Their efforts provide a model for others looking to bring the benefits of volunteering and social impact to their workforce, and they’re extremely deserving of this recognition.”
The Civic 50 survey is administered by True Impact, and the results are analyzed by VeraWorks. The survey instrument consists of quantitative and multiple-choice questions that inform the scoring process. The Civic 50 is the only survey and ranking system that exclusively measures corporate community engagement.
