One of our core values at Tonkon Torp is being good stewards — for our employees, our clients and, most importantly, our community.

The successes of our community initiatives support the growth of our region as a whole, and we recognize that we have both the responsibility and the privilege to support that growth.

We support a wide range of Pacific Northwest nonprofit organizations through sponsorships, donations of in-kind services, and volunteer participation by our attorneys and staff members.

In October, 2021, the Portland Business Journal honored Tonkon Torp with a Corporate Philanthropy Award. Tonkon Torp earned a Top 10 ranking for its cash and in-kind donations in 2020 in the medium-size category. Tonkon Torp was the second highest company in the category when ranked by volunteer hours, with attorneys and staff members contributing more than 6,500 hours during their pro bono and volunteer efforts.

See our Pro Bono page for more information on Tonkon Torp's work for the community.
