GIVING BACK CAPTRUST colleagues volunteering at Note in the Pocket in Raleigh, North Carolina.
From stockpiles for donation to a virtual run for the CAPTRUST Community Foundation, our colleagues have been busy. Find out what we have been doing to stay active in the community.
2020 Hops for Hope
For a sixth year, CAPTRUST participated in Triangle Hops for Hope, an event that pairs corporate teams with Raleigh-area craft breweries to create an original beer to raise money for charity. The event raised more than $90,000 to benefit Children’s Flight of Hope, a local nonprofit that provides air transportation for children to access specialized medical care. CAPTRUST’s team, The Roth IPAs, brewed a Berliner Weisse named Nobody Puts Baby in a Cake and raised more than $2,400 for the cause.
9/11 Day of Service
CAPTRUST colleagues were masked up and ready to make their contributions at the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina this past September 11. Volunteers sorted foods and assembled family-sized boxes containing healthy meals for families in the community. 42

Bond Brothers 5K
From September 19 to 26 the CAPTRUST Community Foundation partnered with Bond Brothers Beer Company to host the fourth annual Bond Brothers 5K race—virtually! The cyberevent pulled in 272 runners, joggers, and walkers who completed and reported the time and date of their own five-kilometer runs across roads, trails, and treadmills around the country. The race raised more than $3,000 for the CAPTRUST Community Foundation.
Metropolitan Ministries
Colleagues from our Tampa office worked diligently over the summer months to collect hygiene, baby care items, and other necessities for families in need in our communities. In August, the group arranged for their stockpile to be delivered to Metropolitan Ministries.
Sleep in Heavenly Peace
Last month volunteers from CAPTRUST’s Salt Lake City office teamed with Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit organization that builds and delivers beds to children who do not have a place to sleep. The team created five bunkbed sets that afternoon, which will provide ten children with beds to sleep in.
