We each have a responsibility for making the firm the best it can be. We are empowered to make decisions with the flexibility to do whatever is best for our clients.

We Believe Black Lives Matter, Still

There is no room for neutrality, disinterest, or indifference when it comes to inequality. HawkPartners stands alongside our Black colleagues, clients, partners, communities, and all fighting to end the system of structural racism that has plagued our nation for centuries.

We pride ourselves on our HawkPartners culture – one of inclusivity, teamwork, and respect for one another. In keeping with our culture, we are committed to taking meaningful action to aid in the fight to end racial injustice and inequality.

Actions taken to date:

  • We have partnered with Third Settlements, a group of creative strategists who specialize in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), to guide us in our efforts to move racial justice forward
  • We regularly hold firmwide conversations dedicated to exploring racial issues at HawkPartners and beyond
  • We have formed the Racial Justice Committee (RJC), a team of allies who continue to be committed to becoming well versed in the issues of racism and all things regarding racial justice and inequality
  • We continue to review and restructure workplace policies and practices through the lens of racial justice

We aim to create a space that not only encourages diversity of thought, but also celebrates the diversity of skin color and experiences.


We Are Committed to LGBTQ+ Inclusion

At HawkPartners, we benefit every day from the unique perspectives of our colleagues, friends & family who are members of the LGBTQ+ community. We are also privileged to work with amazing LGBTQ+ clients, as well as a range of client brands that actively support the LGBTQ+ community in a continuing effort to make the world a safer, healthier, and better place for everyone.

As part of our commitment to Inclusivity, we respect and appreciate each other’s differences as we believe that each of our lived experiences frames the lens through which we see the world. We are all better consultants, colleagues, and citizens because of our continued quest to understand each other.

At HawkPartners, we are committed to:

  • Offering benefits that are free of bias and serve the unique needs of all Partners, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity
  • Minimizing bias in our work so that we are executing projects that are inclusive and are truly representative of the audiences our clients serve
  • Creating spaces for our LGBTQ+ Partners and those who have worked within the community to share their stories

Volunteers at Ronald McDonald House

New York

Ronald McDonald House

Partners in New York collaborated with the Ronald McDonald House to pack approximately 200 snack pack boxes and assemble 50 coloring books for children undergoing cancer treatment.

Ronald McDonald House does an amazing job providing support and resources for families struggling with pediatric cancer.  We were happy to be able to help with care packages that will hopefully bring well-deserved smiles to these brave kids.

Volunteers at Friends of Bostons Homeless

Philadelphia

Hub of Hope

The Philly office worked with the Hub of Hope, an organization that provides a safe haven for individuals experiencing homelessness by serving lunch, preparing coffee, and cleaning the facilities.

The Philly volunteer event was a wonderful opportunity to help serve our local homeless community. There were plenty of “to-dos” for our office to help with that day, and it was nice to feel like we made an impact, even if for just one day.

Boston

Friends of Boston’s Homeless

HawkPartners constructed housewarming baskets for Friends of Boston’s Homeless.

It was so nice to assemble the homewares baskets as a team in Boston. Putting together the baskets of things that will help people make a fresh start in a more secure home was so rewarding, and a great opportunity to make an impact in our local community. “​
