Our Commitment to Community

At The Millstone Evans Group, our commitment to helping people extends far beyond the comprehensive financial plans we create and the sound investment portfolios we design. We are just as dedicated to serving the needs of the communities in which we live and work as we are to serving the best interests of our clients.

We devote our time to a number of worthy organizations, including:

• The University of Colorado's American Music Research Council
• Boulder Museum of Modern Art
• Colorado Music Festival
• Colorado Shakespeare Festival
• Rotary Club
• 3rd Law Dance Company
• Sugarloaf Adopt-A-Mile
• Habitat for Humanity
• Impact on Education

Our commitment to giving back is shared by Raymond James. Caring for people was a founding principle that, as the firm has grown, has become more resolute.

Raymond James provides unwavering financial backing to educational programs for children and adults alike, while the firm's advisors and associates donate something even more valuable to these institutions – their time. Raymond James continues to be one of the largest United Way contributors in the Tampa Bay area, where the firm is headquartered, and financial advisors throughout the country are staunch supporters of their local chapters of this well-deserving organization. The firm's name appears on Raymond James Stadium, where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the University of South Florida Bulls play, and where countless civic events have been held for the enjoyment of many.

Raymond James is also an ardent patron of the arts. In fact, in 2003, Raymond James received the Business in the Arts Commitment Award for its long-term support of foundations, museums, art shows and individual artists across the country. Chairman Tom James has also received the Business Committee for the Arts' leadership award.

The firm is home to one of the Southeast's largest art collections, The Tom and Mary James/Raymond James Financial Art Collection. The collection consists of more than 1,500 pieces and provides associates and clients with a rare environment for conducting business.

Across the country, Raymond James, its associates and financial advisors support more than 100 institutions. The contribution of financial support, donation of in-kind services, and sponsorship of major art shows and events ranges from the Raymond James Gasparilla Festival of Arts (Tampa Bay's premier art show) to the Raymond James Theater, and from The Arts Center in Spartanburg, South Carolina, to the Amateur Community Theatre in Rowlett, Texas, the Idaho Falls Symphony and many others.
