Giving Back
Donating Resources
We are constantly seeking ways to provide resources such as mentoring, training and development to those in need. We have a long-standing partnership with Groom-Elite, an organization that helps women from low-income communities become entrepreneurs.
Donating Finances
We are proud to support Dallas Food Bank and Parker Lee Project, both of which are dedicated to helping those in need. Through our donations, we help combat hunger in the Dallas area and support orphanages.
We believe that everyone deserves access to nutritious food, a safe home, and the opportunity to succeed in life. With our donations, we are committed to making sure the most vulnerable members of our society have access to the basic human needs they require.

At Akorbi, we know that it's not just about giving money and resources. It's also about time. That's why our employees dedicate their time to helping those in need with various neighborhood projects and events.
We work hard to ensure that our local communities have access to the resources they need. From providing food and supplies to those in need, to organizing literacy programs for youth, our employees are passionate about making a difference
