Raleigh, N.C. – August 21, 2024 – The CAPTRUST Community Foundation (CCF) today announced $10,000 donations to 75 charities across the country, totaling $750,000, as part of the nonprofit’s fifth annual Giving Day.

The CCF is CAPTRUST’s 501(c)(3) foundation, with the mission of enriching the lives of children in the local communities that CAPTRUST serves. For this campaign, CAPTRUST offices identified local organizations representing causes that both benefit children and are important to the respective community.

“We began our annual Giving Day campaign in 2020, when there were so many nonprofits that needed help to just keep the lights on,” said Veronica Karas, co-president of the CCF, and CAPTRUST financial advisor. “Now, Giving Day has become a huge cultural milestone for CAPTRUST each year, and our offices take great pride in getting to support an organization in their backyard.”

“Our mission to enrich the lives of children in the communities we serve can be achieved in so many different ways, and the Giving Day campaign is a great example of that,” said Bryan Lewis, CCF co-president, and account manager of CAPTRUST at Work. “From the Special Olympics and Boys & Girls Clubs, to organizations that provide basic essentials and education, we know that each of these organizations will be able to make a direct impact.”

Founded in 2007, the foundation has awarded over $6.25 million in grants to charitable organizations across the country that help children. The CCF’s main source of fundraising is through voluntary employee payroll deductions that are matched by CAPTRUST.

Ten Engrave colleagues will join CAPTRUST, including Co-founders Greg Parker and Taylor Parker. The firm serves as a fiduciary to hundreds of clients focused within Texas, Louisiana, and California, with an emphasis on retirement planning for individuals, including tax planning and estate planning.  

“We recognized the challenges of continuing to serve our existing clients at the highest level while continuing to grow,” said Greg Parker. “Ultimately, we were looking for a partner who could help us deepen our offering to existing clients while accelerating our organic growth strategy.”  

The majority of Engrave’s client base are corporate professionals or small business owners nearing or in retirement, many with a background in the oil and gas industry. The team places a strong focus on tax planning and proactively preparing these high-net-worth individuals for retirement. This transaction marks the second CAPTRUST office in Houston—Monroe Vos Consulting joined the firm in 2023.  

“The resources we are most excited to access at CAPTRUST are the investment and tax services,” said Taylor Parker. “They will significantly deepen the expertise we can offer and will elevate the experience we provide to our clients.” 

CAPTRUST has continued to grow in Texas over the past year, with the addition of two more firms in 2023: Omega Wealth Partners and Southern Wealth Management. The firm now has more than 170 employees in the state.
