Social Responsibility
Swim Across America
Every year Petretti & Associates hosts a golf outing to help raise money for a worthy cause. For the past two years we have had the honor of partnering with Swim Across America and Team JF. Swim Across America is an amazing organization dedicated to raising money for and bringing awareness to cancer research, prevention, and treatment. Team JF is one of Swim Across America’s largest teams formed in honor of Julian Fraser. Julian was an All-American swimmer, and collegiate water polo player, who sadly passed away in 2017 at age 20 after a ten-month battle from osteosarcoma, the most common type of bone cancer.
Unfortunately, Julian’s story is not uncommon. Every 15 minutes, 50 Americans are diagnosed with cancer. This is why organization like Swim Across America are so important. Every year millions of Americans are beating cancer through advancements in treatments. Swim Across America raises crucial funds for doctors and researchers who are pioneering new cures and treatments for cancer.
Dr. Robin Gartrell and her pediatric oncology team at Columbia University Irving Medical Center are the beneficiaries of our efforts. The ground-breaking work Dr. Gartrell and her team are doing to treat pediatric brain tumors, and potentially lead to other cancer treatments is awe-inspiring and we couldn’t be more proud to support such an amazing cause.
Pencils of Promise
The Petretti family has been involved with Pencils of Promise since the very beginning. Larry first heard about Pencils of Promise in 2009 when Founder Adam Braun was hosting a small event in New York City. During that event, Larry gave what was PoP’s most significant gift at the time. Ever since, Larry has enthusiastically continued to support PoP by engaging his friends, family, business colleagues and network in the cause. The Petretti family has completed several fundraisers with PoP to build multiple schools and support PoP’s programs directly.
In 2016, the Petretti family launched PoP’s first ever golf tournament raising enough money to provide better futures for thousands of children worldwide.
Diversification in the Workforce
Petretti & Associates Supplier Diversity Program aims to proactively identify, build relationships with, and purchase goods and services from certified small businesses as well as enterprises owned by minorities, women, veterans, members of the LGBTQ community, and disabled persons to achieve its corporate objectives.
Environmental Preservation

We have developed an environmentally friendly initiative to ensure the respect and protection of the environment is met in every project we do in and out of the office. Petretti & Associates commits itself to the compliance with all current, national legislation and is focused on maintaining the integrity of the environment by practicing and promoting sustainability with the constant goal of lowering our carbon footprint.
