Community

At SRO, we believe that building community is just as important as managing one.

That’s why we’re proud of our decades-long legacy of service and support to the communities we occupy. We seek to steward our resources and expertise wisely and selflessly, improving both the health and welfare of the underserved.

We believe it important to give back to the communities in which we do business and have done so for many decades. We support non-profit groups in the areas of human services, health, education and environment.”

Shareholder and Employee Volunteerism and Giving

Part of what makes SRO’s community program so robust is the generosity of our Shareholders and employees who multiply our community impact. Each year, SRO matches employee and Shareholder giving and volunteer hours. In 2020, SRO matched $59,300 in employee contributions. The Company’s executives collectively serve on five nonprofit boards. SRO was pleased to be recognized at #8 on Puget Sound Business Journal’s list of top midsize corporate philanthropists in 2019.
