Pillar Grant Program

Supporting change with a servant’s heart.

At Buckingham Wealth Partners, we define success as our ability to have an enduring, positive impact on the lives of our clients, associates and communities we serve.

We contribute to causes our associates are passionate about, support events that recognize the hard work of our clients and sponsor the Buckingham Pillar Grant Program. This successful program was created to provide financial assistance to nonprofit organizations in the communities where our associates live and work.

Our grant recipients rely on substantial, quality evidence and a well-considered, well-written plan when living out their missions—the very same values that propel our firm.

Congratulations to our 2022 Pillar Grant Recipients
