Investing in Our Community
We wholeheartedly believe that being an active member of the community is essential. Giving back is ingrained in our values and started nearly 60 years ago with our founder, Tim Johnson. This belief is instilled in our employees and has become part of our corporate culture.
We not only support the interests of our employees regarding community service, we encourage philanthropy with our clients through the use of the Johnson Charitable Gift Fund and other means. Over half a billion dollars are held in charitable accounts that have been directed to charities by Johnson Investment Counsel’s clients.
Of our employees, nearly 80% volunteer across 193 organizations, serving on over 150 boards and advisory committees throughout the community.
