Scholarships
The firm’s founder, Ron Price, was a highly regarded, long-time faculty member in the business department at Phoenix College. He established the Ronald D. Price Memorial Scholarship to help underprivileged students attending Phoenix College. The firm continues to fund the scholarship program, offering six to ten scholarships each year, depending on need. In recognition of the firm’s ongoing support, the firm was an honored recipient of Phoenix College’s Exemplary Partnership Award.
Senior partner, Tony Kong, has been a long-time supporter of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Each year, Price Kong donates $1000 scholarship to the Chinese Chamber for high school students that need financial assistance to attend college.
Osborn School District
Price Kong is a large supporter of Osborn School District, which consists of Title I schools in central Phoenix. The firm adopted Longview Elementary School in the Osborn School District and a portion of funds raised at the annual charity golf tournament is donated to the school. Much of Longview’s student population comes from low income families, many of which are homeless and near-homeless. Price Kong has hosted many programs for the school, including an annual school supply drive to provide the tools students need to start the year off right. The firm also sponsors an art contest, awarding 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners, and providing $500 for the schools art teacher to use on supplies for her classroom. Price Kong then uses the winning art for their annual client holiday cards.
Shred-A-Thon
Each November, Price Kong holds a Shred-A-Thon for the community. The firm offers free document shredding for individuals and businesses in exchange for nonperishable food, frozen turkeys, and monetary donations. The donations are delivered to Paz De Cristo to feed the hungry.
St. Vincent de Paul Adopt-A-Family
Price Kong participated in the St. Vincent de Paul Adopt-A-Family Christmas Program, matching staff donations dollar-for-dollar. The funds were used to purchase gifts and a grocery gift card for two families in need – a single mom with five children and a family of four.
