Citizen HKS

Citizen HKS is our public-interest design initiative, enabling HKS to dedicate company time and resources to help communities in need. Citizen HKS has designed and helped build projects from Uganda to Dallas and places in between. In the process, we’ve shown that for-profit companies can do well by doing good. Citizen HKS impacts lives and drives change through design, community service and financial philanthropy to help lift communities in need.

The Citizen HKS Donor Advised Fund supports projects and other initiatives that align with our mission to make the world a better place. We invite you to contribute to our work and support our mission by donating below.

Without the [unhoused] community, I would have lost the only possession I had left [when I was on the streets] – hope.
