50 Years of BUILDING COMMUNITY
Since its founding 50 years ago, creating positive impacts in the community has been an essential part of Structure Tone’s core values. From volunteering and fundraising to stepping up during crises like 9/11 and Hurricane Sandy, Structure Tone’s dedication to its communities was a major focal point of the organization’s 50th anniversary.
As part of a “time capsule” display at the milestone celebration event, Structure Tone offices in New York, New Jersey, Stamford, and Philadelphia expressed gratitude to various community partners and commemorated their relationships by looking back at special events that have taken place over the past five decades and highlighting the permanent, positive impacts that have stemmed from them.
The Community exhibition showcased more than a dozen letters from charities, foundations, and other groups, all congratulating and thanking Structure Tone for its commitment and generosity over the years. These organizations included ACE Mentor Program, Boy Scouts of America, Catholic Charities, Friends of St. Dominic’s, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Muscular Dystrophy Association, National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Outreach Project Inc., Salvadori Center, Special Olympics New York, St. Francis Food Pantries and Shelters, and United Way of New York City.
The display also consisted of framed artwork created by the Inner City Scholarship Fund and Muscular Dystrophy Association, a special scouting outfit gifted by the Boy Scouts of America, and a unified soccer ball to represent Structure Tone’s relationship with the Special Olympics, among other mementos. Photographs of Structure Tone teams at various athletic fundraisers, like Tunnel to Towers, American Heart Association’s Wall Street Run & Heart Walk, and Climb to the Top MS, were featured as well.

Sharing past moments with these incredible partners was one of the most meaningful parts of celebrating Structure Tone’s golden anniversary. Dermid Kelly, regional vice president of Structure Tone Philadelphia, agrees:
“
At Structure Tone, we’re committed to making a positive impact where we live and work. We’re proud of our legacy of building not just buildings, but also a community of employees who care about each other and those around them.”
