\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cWe are grateful for the trust that BCA Architects & Engineers has put in the Community Foundation with the creation of this charitable fund,\u201d said Max DelSignore, Community Foundation vice president. \u201cThe firm has been deeply invested in its communities for decades. We look forward to having a lasting relationship with BCA, while providing guidance and responsible stewardship to accomplish its charitable endeavors.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>From education and health care to infrastructure and public spaces, BCA Architects & Engineers believes in investing in the future.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cThe 15 Public Square Foundation gives us a platform to expand our philanthropic reach statewide, ensuring that our support extends beyond our projects and into the fabric of the communities we help shape,\u201d said Travis Overton<\/b>, BCA Architects & Engineers CEO.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Why 15 Public Square? Mr. Overton explained that it\u2019s more than an address \u2014 it\u2019s the heart of the city where the firm\u2019s story began.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cSince our founding in 1970 as a small civil engineering and surveying firm, BCA has grown into a 120-person, full-service architecture and engineering firm with seven offices across New York,\u201d Mr. Overton said. \u201cAs we\u2019ve expanded, so has our passion for giving back. This foundation represents a long-term vision for our philanthropy, reinforcing our belief that the work we do isn\u2019t just about buildings and infrastructure \u2014 it\u2019s about strengthening communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>With this initiative, BCA is deepening its commitment to making meaningful, lasting contributions to the communities that have supported the firm for more than half a century.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cWe are honored to partner with the Northern New York Community Foundation to ensure this legacy of giving continues to grow,\u201d Mr. Overton said. \u201cTogether, we\u2019re building a stronger, more connected New York.\u201d<\/p>\n
