Community

Community involvement is the focus and foundation of The LA Group’s culture. The firm’s causes come from its core and the passions of its people because a dedicated team makes the biggest difference. The LA Group understands community, and without that the firm would not be where it is today. Giving back isn’t only the right thing to do, it’s the most effective way to sustain the places the team lives in and loves.

The LA Group has assisted nonprofits by providing design services, site studies and evaluations, fundraising support, and staff volunteering since its foundation. The LA Group was also one of the first firms in Upstate New York to join The 1% Program, launched by Public Architecture in 2005. Through the program, The LA Group has provided thousands of hours to nonprofit organizations in need of design assistance.
