Our core mission at Talisen Construction Corp is the commitment to best serve the community. We believe the environment and children’s charities are integral parts of being a positive, contributing communal influence. At Talisen, we support sustainability in the built environment. As for children’s charities, two causes have a special place in the hearts of the Principals of Talisen.

Thank you to all those who have supported Talisen this past year. During this time of giving, join Talisen in supporting our children. Read below to see how.

Autism Speaks »

Joseph’s son was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome at the age of three. Now 13 years old, he has made huge growth and development improvements, but still wrestles with the challenges of being on the Spectrum. In addition, Joseph’s close friend has a son with autism as well, and through these experiences, he has witnessed the challenges and financial strains that raising an autistic child has on the family unit.

Autism effects 1 in 110 children, in fact 1 in 70 boys are now diagnosed today. Even though it is the fastest-growing developmental disability today, there is still no known cause for autism. Joseph believes passionately that with enough public attention, funding and devoted research, a better awareness and understanding can and will make a difference for the futures of our children.

Joseph is very active with Autism Speaks. He is a committee member for the NYC Walk, holds the Chair for the NYC Corporate Sponsor Committee and has formed a walk team for the 2011 NYC Walk event.

Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) »

Robert’s daughter was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes at the age of six. Now 13 years old, she lives a healthy, active life with the support of an insulin pump. Since her diagnosis, Robert has supported the American Diabetes Association and enlisted Talisen as a corporate sponsor.
Although much is known about diabetes and a great deal of progress has already been made, Robert feels strongly that a cure is somewhere in the future with continued funding, research and persistence toward one goal…a cure.

Millions of kids and families dealing with type 1 diabetes (also called juvenile diabetes) are dreaming of one perfect gift this holiday season – that cure.
This year, Talisen is making a gift to the Diabetes Research Institute, which has a singular mission to cure diabetes.

Sustainability in the Built Environment»

It has been estimated that over 79% of NYC’s carbon footprint is embodied in the built environment. Much has been learned about ways to design and build that will help achieve the 30% carbon emissions reduction goal NYC set out to achieve by 2030.

At Talisen we take our environment seriously. We have firsthand experience carrying out large-scale tenant fit-outs that have achieved various levels of LEED for Commercial Interiors (LEED-CI) certification. It does not stop here. Talisen has embarked on a continuous education program to maintain on the forefront of this evolving area of knowledge.
