Damuth Trane Recognized as one of the 50 Most Community-Minded Companies in Hampton Roads
Damuth Trane has been named an honoree of The Civic 50 Hampton Roads by VOLUNTEER Hampton Roads and Points of Light, the world’s largest organization dedicated to volunteer service. The award recognizes Damuth Trane as one of the most community-minded companies in Hampton Roads determined by an independently administered and scored survey.
The Civic 50 Hampton Roads initiative, modeled after Points of Light’s national program, provides a standard for superior corporate citizenship, and showcases how companies can use their time, skills and resources to drive social impact in their company and communities.
Companies are selected based on four dimensions of their community engagement program – investment of resources, integration across business functions, institutionalization through policies and systems and impact measurement. The Civic 50 Hampton Roads survey is administered by True Impact, a company specializing in helping organizations maximize and measure their social and business value and consists of quantitative and multiple-choice questions that inform the scoring process.
“We are proud to be included in the list of The Civic 50 Hampton Roads Honorees for 2023,” expressed Clint Damuth, Damuth Trane Company President; “Damuth Trane and our team of diligent, caring associates have worked hard to improve our community engagement, volunteerism efforts, and overall investment in our region over the last 53 years of being in business. We are humbled at the recognition and grateful to organizations like VOLUNTEER Hampton Roads for giving us the resources to continue giving back.”
