What our clients are
saying about us:

”Through her research with senior managers, our associates and community leaders, Linda and her team at LBG Associates helped us develop a strong and meaningful community involvement program that effectively aligns with our business goals, generates measurable benefits for the community and supports our employees’ interests. LBG Associates provided guidance as much as results, with excellent follow-up. The customized attention they gave our project ensured the results effectively matched our company’s culture and business model. Not only did we gain the desired outcome, but it was a highly instructive experience for us all, and we now have a newfound and deep appreciation for what it means to have a highly strategic community outreach program. This bonus–a crash course in corporate giving best practices–was unexpected, and was one of the most valuable benefits of the partnership. It was a pleasure working with every member of the LBG team.“
