Mentoring Veterans

We have a special place in our hearts for those who are willing to put their lives on the line for this country and our ranks include veterans. After learning of challenges many veterans face when they transition from military service to the corporate workforce, we accepted an invitation to join American Corporate Partners with volunteer mentors. We’ve been mentoring veterans ever since.

Supporting and Educating Youth

Jointly with the Forest Service and Idaho State University, Excel recently held a STEM camp for Native American students in Idaho. This exposed the students and their families to ways that they can apply technologies to serve their communities and increase their own personal opportunities. We hope this camp inspired the students to dedicate their lives to protecting human lives and preserving our natural environment. Planning, collaborating, and delivering around a common goal provided an opportunity to enrich these students’ lives beyond their general and academic interests.

Caring for Animals

We embrace the idea that humans, animals, the environment, and our health are all interconnected. This led us to support the Aloha Animal Sanctuary, the first non-profit sanctuary for farmed animals on the island of Oahu. Its mission is to positively affect the environment, community health, and animal welfare. Excel provides pro bono services in support of that mission.
