We have a longstanding tradition of supporting and helping the communities where we have a significant investment presence and the communities where our employees and their families live and work. Our support is through the dedication of thousands of employees who give of their skills and time to help their communities and through our charitable contributions.

Our goal is to make our communities better places in which to live and work. We do so because it is the right thing to do as citizens of those communities, and because it benefits HAKIM.

We realize that HAKIM's continued growth and success is closely tied to the vitality of our communities. Quality of life issues such as education, human services, community development, the environment, and the arts can build up a community or tear it down. We need healthy communities to operate a healthy business, including attracting and retaining quality employees.

It is clear that HAKIM's Social Responsibility is helping to make a positive difference in improving our communities; enhancing relations with community leaders; building employee morale, teamwork and productivity; and impacting business objectives. We look forward to continuing our community contributions in the future, recognizing that a community's needs are infinite and HAKIM's resources are limited.
