Corporate and Social Responsibility

Management of Bazilio Cobb Associates believes strongly in community participation, both business and charitable. Professionals participating in the leadership of the business community strengthens not only the individuals, but it also enhances the business community and citizenry as a whole by promoting thought exchange of the best and brightest in their respective professions.For example, during Ralph Bazilio’s tenure as the Chairman of the Prince George’s Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber actively supported the County government initiative to encourage the developer of National Harbor to contract with local metro area businesses in constructing the complex and for on-going retail. This brought revenue to local businesses, which, in turn, brought employment opportunities to the local residents.
