Part of Community Science’s mission is to directly give back to the local and national community. In 2016 donations were made to the list of organizations noted below. Charitable giving along with two days of service annually are among the many ways Community Science works “to strengthen the science and practice of community change in order to build healthy, just and equitable communities.” Each Community Science staff member recommended a charity for the organization to make a donation on their behalf as their “holiday gift.” Five percent of Community Science’s annual profits were donated, the maximum amount allowed by the IRS.
