Community
At Intellekt, we believe in the power of giving back and supporting causes that make a meaningful impact on our society. As part of our company culture, we encourage our employees to nominate charitable organizations annually across three key categories: Military, Law Enforcement, and Other. After gathering nominations, our team members vote to select the top organization to receive our support. Below is a list of the charitable organizations we’ve proudly supported, reflecting the causes that are important to our employees.
Military
Veteran Community Project (VCP)
Veterans Community Project provides high quality and well-developed strategic services that enable Veterans to meet the challenges of day-to-day living, resolve immediate crises, and move towards permanent stability. VCP’s solution is simple: provide Veterans a home of their own and individualized, wraparound support services that not only help get them back on their feet but ensure they continue standing. The tiny homes in VCP Village offer Veterans a sense of security, and the opportunity to reintegrate into the community at their own pace. Each home is pet-friendly and fully furnished with everything a Veteran needs, from new furniture to dish towels.
