2013: A YEAR IN GIVINGDear Colleagues and Friends:

WeiserMazars takes pride in being a positive force in the

community. As a team, we demonstrate our dedication to

serving others by donating time and funds to an array of

wonderful charitable organizations that are close to our

hearts.

Since 2002, our firm has donated over $3 million to worthy

organizations and our team members have dedicated

countless hours to making a difference.

We truly play an active part in improving the world.

The following pages feature some of 2013’s largest

charitable contributions, all of which were made possible

by the combined efforts of the members of our firm. We

are thankful to be a part of the larger community and wish

everyone a happy and healthy New Year. We hope for your

continued support in 2014.

Sincerely,

Back to School Drive

HURRICANE SANDY

When Superstorm Sandy devastated the East Coast, the

WeiserMazars family pulled together, collecting funds to

help those affected by the storm. Through donations from

our team members and matching gifts from the firm, we

were able to provide $61,000 to help employees who had

been hit hardest get back on their feet. We also created a

pool of $65,000 to be loaned, interest-free, to help rebuild.

Every year, we support numerous excellent causes by being physically

active. Through fundraising runs, walks, and bicycle rides, we show

our appreciation for such important organizations as the American

Cancer Society, the American Heart Association, the Sandy Rollman

Ovarian Cancer Foundation, the Katz Institute for Women’s Health,

Island Harvest, the Chase Corporate Challenge and the Color Run. We

are pleased to be able to help out these wonderful charities and keep fit

at the same time!

Last spring, the firm teamed up with the

Make-a-Wish Foundation to grant the wish of

Evelyn, who was diagnosed with leukemia and

wanted to go to Disney World to swim with the

dolphins. Through a generous outpouring of

support from our colleagues, we were able to

make Evelyn’s wish come true and even

collected enough extra to help other children in

the Make-a-Wish program.

Throughout the year, we collect food, clothing and school

supplies in order to help the disadvantaged in our

communities. By partnering with local organizations, we

are able to make the largest impact. Just some of the

many dedicated groups we work with include Coalition

for the Homeless, Community Food Bank of New Jersey,

the Family and Children’s Association, Cradles to Crayons,

Family Rescue, SCO Family of Services, Philabundance, City

Harvest and Island Harvest.

The holidays can be among the toughest times of year

for the disadvantaged and particularly for children. Each

year, our offices run special toy drives to ensure that

underprivileged children have a Happy Holiday. In 2013,

our charity partners were Toys for Tots and Women Against

Abuse, each of which received dozens of toys from our team

members.
