As of December 31, 2018, Buchanan Children’s Charities has donated over $2 million to children’s charities and we’re proud of the thousands of lives we have enriched. Giving back is deeply embedded in the culture at Buchanan Street Partners and our employees have generously contributed both physically and financially.
The Orange County Community Foundation has been a significant partner. Through their efforts, we have been able to restart music programs within the local public schools in Orange County. The charity’s signature event is “Encore for Education”, a commercial real estate industry concert benefiting Music Matters. In October of 2018, at the sixth Encore for Education, the charity contributed $150,000 to benefit Music Matters and featured Fitz and the Tantrums. Since inception, Encore for Education has donated over $950,000 for the Music Matters initiative.
Due to our long-standing partnership, we have decided to have OCCF directly manage Buchanan Children’s Charities. This will enable our employees to continue to make contributions, as well as open the door for potential new initiatives with the guidance and support of OCCF.
