Starting in 2003 CB Richard Ellis founded the CB Richard Ellis Foundation to provide funds to CB Richard Ellis' philanthropic and community initiatives on both the local and global levels.
Continuing to strengthen our commitment to social responsibility, in 2006 CB Richard Ellis formed CBRE Cares, our company-wide philanthropy program. Under CBRE Cares, CB Richard Ellis partnered with two additional charities: The National Kidney Foundation and Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation.
More information on CB Richard Ellis' philanthropic partnerships can be obtained by contacting the CB Richard Ellis Philanthropy Program Team.
In addition, CBRE Cares encourages local offices to align themselves with charity work within the community. CB Richard Ellis-Buffalo employees actively participate in the following charitable organizations:
