We Give Back

We are passionate about supporting charitable organizations that help children, families, veterans, and communities in need. As part of our commitment to giving back, we offer paid Volunteer Time Off (VTO) so that Opteon team members can support causes that matter most to them.  We believe that being part of the business community comes with a responsibility to give back. Here’s what we’ve been up to these last 18-months:

Safe Harbor

Safe Harbor

As foster parents themselves, Opteon US Advisory Board Member Tim Hamilton and his wife Cathy are highly involved in the success of Safe Harbor. The organization provides hope for children in foster care who are coming out of very difficult circumstances.  Families who commit to caring for a traumatized child receive specialized assistance, support, education, and service to ensure placement stability and a secure home that will be a Safe Harbor.

Care Fund

Care Fund

As an active member of Care Fund’s Advisory Council, Opteon team members in Arizona regularly volunteer their time to raise money and awareness for families needing mortgage or rent assistance during a child’s extended health crisis. We believe that no family should have to choose between caring for their child or working to pay their mortgage. As part of our commitment, a portion of every appraisal management fee in Arizona is donated monthly to support Care Fund.

Apex Golf Tournament

Apex Golf Tournament

In 2019, we hosted (under our former name, Apex) an inaugural golf tournament and mortgage mixer to raise money for several of our favorite charities near Opteon's California office. We are passionate about helping improve the foster care system and making it easier and more manageable to provide long-term lasting care for kids needing families.

If you’d like to participate or sponsor next year, please contact ApexCares@apexone.com.

Autism Speaks

Autism Speaks

A former-employee and continued friend is a father to a son with autistic superpowers that allow him to see, hear, smell and feel things at an extraordinarily heightened level. Team members at Apex support Autism Speaks for their advocacy of individuals with autism and families like our friend. Autism Speaks also works to increase appreciation for these autistic superpowers and advance research into causes and better support of autism

The Taylor House

The Taylor House

One of our former team members came from The Taylor House! This remarkable organization helps young women who age out of foster care and are suddenly considered adults at the age of 18. The Taylor House helps these at-risk youth transition into adulthood and become well-rounded, self-sufficient, confident adults who are empowered with the tools and life skills needed to step out on their own and enrich our communities.

Allegiant Giving

Allegiant Giving

We are proud to support veterans through our annual involvement in the Alpine Cares Golf Tournament. The event allows Allegiant Giving to purchase Action Track Chairs for veterans who have sustained serious injuries and/or can no longer enjoy outdoor activities because of age. These remarkable chairs allow previously immobile veterans to hunt, fish, camp, pull their children on a sled in the snow, tow a kayak to the water’s edge, or even walk their daughter down the aisle at her beach wedding.
