DRESHER, Pa. - Sept. 2, 2015 - PRLog -- Ascensus, the nation’s largest independent retirement plan and college savings services provider, is pleased to announce that it has won the SmartCEO 2015 Cornerstone Award in the Montgomery County, large-company category.

The Cornerstone Awards program honors businesses headquartered in the communities surrounding the Greater Philadelphia Area. These companies are not only economic drivers, but they are also exemplary stewards. Ascensus’ status as a Philly.com Top Workplace, along with its service-oriented culture and local philanthropic efforts, served to qualify the company for this exciting recognition.

This year’s thirty-five finalists included companies of all sizes and industry segments across Bucks, Chester, and Montgomery Counties as well as the Philadelphia city and Southern New Jersey areas. Together, they employ over 14,712 individuals in the region and had over $2.9 billion in total combined annual revenues in 2014.

Each Cornerstone finalist was profiled in the July/August issue of SmartCEO magazine. Ascensus’ profile highlighted the company’s Volunteer Time Off program, servant leadership philosophy, and Comfort for a Cause program that raised over $14,000 in 2014.

Ascensus President and Chief Executive Officer Bob Guillocheau accepted the award on behalf of Ascensus at the Cornerstone Awards Luncheon held on Monday, August 31, at the Radisson Blu Warwick Hotel in Philadelphia. Nearly 200 executives and decision-makers attended the high-energy lunch celebration to honor the finalists’ achievements. The event kicked off with a networking reception, which was followed by a video-packed awards presentation that honored each company for their contributions to their local communities and the region at large. In his acceptance speech, Guillocheau thanked all Ascensus associates for their volunteer efforts in the local community and their dedication to the company’s service culture.
