Capital to the Core

Capital to the Core celebrates teammates who embody our five core values: Safety, Quality, Integrity, Innovation, and Loyalty. Each quarter, we recognize five exceptional employees for their outstanding contributions to our company, clients, partners, or communities through these values. Our team is our greatest asset, and we’re proud to honor their achievements throughout the year!

Annual Capital Character Award Winner

By the end of the year, a total of 20 teammates will have earned eligibility for the prestigious Capital Character Award. At our annual end-of-year celebration, we honor one winner for each core value, recognizing their dedication and the impact they've made on our company, our clients, and the communities we serve. It’s our way of shining a spotlight on those who truly embody what it means to be Capital to the Core.
