Community
Our community relationships are important to us. We understand that our involvement in the community now will impact our future. HBK is actively involved in various organizations that support our pillars of health, education, and safety.
Employee Volunteer Program
We know that CHANGING a community is more than the upgrading of wires and pipes that run underground and the reconstruction of buildings and roads. Changing a community is about SUPPORTING the people who live and contribute to those COMMUNITIES on a DAILY basis. HBK’s Employee Volunteer Program, HBK IMPACT, has been designed to do just that.
