Calnan & Associates, Inc. ranked among the top corporate charitable givers in Massachusetts according to a recent report by the Boston Business Journal. The company was recognized for its charitable giving and for the contributions made by J. Calnan & Associates’ employees. Additionally they ranked #1 overall for average per-employee volunteer hours.

“The people of JC&A have a keen understanding of how much help we received from our community in our 18 years of business”, said Jay Calnan, Chief Executive Officer of J. Calnan & Associates. “We have successfully grown from a start-up company to an industry leader and are extremely cognizant of how instrumental our
community has been in helping us to realize our goals. Our community continues to inspire us every day to be the very best we can and we feel strongly that it is our obligation to return that support in every way we can.”
