PDS CARES

PDS Planning: PDS Cares

November 11, 2021

PDS CARES is an initiative that uses financial contributions by our owners to make discretionary gifts to various causes throughout the year, promoting a giving spirit in our organization & community.


What is PDS CARES

Financial contributions by our owners are used to make discretionary gifts to various causes throughout the year. By involving our staff to weigh in on those organizations that they personally support, it also increases a sense of internal goodwill at PDS Planning and also helps embrace a giving spirit throughout our organization and community.

Why Do We Do It

It’s the right thing to do – and it’s personal. By developing and promoting our matching program, it supports our community. Further, it provides a sense of purpose for our team members. Each benefiting organization is personally selected by each team member, and that is important.


“It shows PDS has true participation in charitable giving. This aligns with so many of our client’s values.”

Kyle Euton, PDS Planning Portfolio Manager
