Marcum LLP announces firm-wide Thanksgiving day of service

Marcum LLP, a top national accounting and advisory services firm, today announced that all Marcum offices will be closed for business on Wednesday, November 25, the day before Thanksgiving. All employees firm-wide will instead work at charity events arranged for Marcum teams from every office.

The Marcum Day of Service is an initiative of the Marcum Foundation, which supports charities and nonprofit community organizations in all Marcum regions.

“Marcum is committed to supporting the communities in which we do business,” said Jeffrey Weiner, Marcum’s managing partner, in a statement. “That commitment takes many forms, from nonprofit board memberships to fundraising and food drives, among many others.  This year, we are adding one more way that Marcum gives back to our communities with a Day of Service that will allow employees to work side-by-side to help those in need.”

Every Marcum office has selected one or more charity partners and a team activity for each charity.

“With the Marcum Day of Service, the entire Marcum team will be putting its muscle to work for some of the outstanding organizations that serve our communities so diligently throughout the year," stated Shaun Blogg, Marcum Foundation chair and partner-in-charge of the Firm’s West Palm Beach, Florida, office. "The timing, which will coincide with the start of holiday season, will be a poignant opportunity for our Firm to partner with our communities in a new way to help those who need a hand up."
