Pelotonia
Pelotonia is a passionate community united in the fight to end cancer. Founded in 2008, Pelotonia has grown into a powerful movement, raising over $309 million for innovative cancer research. The organization hosts an annual bike ride that brings together thousands of riders, volunteers, and donors, all committed to one goal: funding life-saving cancer research.
OUR 2025 GOAL: In the last nine years, Team Hamilton Parker has raised over $267,000, with 100% of all donations going directly to life-saving cancer research. Together, we can make 2025 even better!

Volunteer Time Off (VTO)
At Hamilton Parker, we believe in giving back to our communities, which is why we offer Volunteer Time Off (VTO) for our employees. This program allows our team members to dedicate their time and talents to meaningful causes such as Fry Out Cancer, local schools, the Ronald McDonald House, United Way, Special Olympics, and many more. By supporting these impactful organizations, our employees help to create positive change and make our communities better places to live and work.
Holiday Giving
In 2014 we created the Gift of Giving program to allow us to make charitable donations on behalf of our customers as a way of thanking them for the previous year of business and partnership.
In honor of our 10th year of our Gift of Giving program, we are passing along the generosity to an organization that is very close to the Lewin family, the Jack Madison Memorial Fund. This fund was established in 2023 when Adam Lewin’s nephew, Jack, passed away. The fund is used to help those of all faiths that are in need, support causes close to Jack’s heart and passions.
