‘Giving something back’ to our communities is a principle in practice for Paul Davis Restoration business units throughout North America. Our business owners, their employees, and often family members, volunteer time, skills, and financial support to many needy local causes. Our Social Purpose was established by FirstService Brands, our parent company, in 2018 with the #FirstServeOthers hashtag. Our Social Purpose is defined by our desire to do good while doing good work. We focus our efforts on three key pillars: our people, our communities, and our environment.
