Community Engagement Programs
Through Atlantis’ Community Engagement Programs, we donate to a number of organizations whose missions are to build stronger communities. Our giving is centered on these focus areas: veterans, public education, health and wellness, hunger relief and shelter, the cultural arts and children’s health.

The Spirit of Volunteerism
As part of Atlantis’ efforts to positively impact the community where we live, work, and raise our families, a Volunteer Committee was created. This group of Team Members volunteers their time to make a positive impact and work together as a team for the greater good.
