DDG believes that giving back to the community is a corporate responsibility, and actively pursues sustainable development practices.

In an effort to fulfill these responsibilities, DDG created the DDG Partners Foundation Inc. (the "DDG Foundation"), a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to the support of programs and organizations that promote environmentally responsible development, provide community outreach and job training, provide for local business improvement districts, protect significant cultural and architectural landmarks, and provide for the creation and preservation of open space.

Through these efforts, DDG and the DDG Foundation hope to improve the quality of life for the entire community.
