Community Building & Giving
Going beyond direct business activities to support communities through charitable giving, volunteering and charitable initiatives.
Empowering Our Communities
Our charitable giving programs have helped thousands of nonprofits achieve their missions since 1959. Funding allocated by the Community Ties Giving Program ranges from local grants and sponsorships to regional and national partnerships.
The ethical treatment of others is important to us. Our Anti- Discrimination Policy reflects our dedication to work only with nonprofit organizations that do not discriminate based on a person’s race, color, sex, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, religion, past or present military service, sexual orientation, gender identity and or/expression, genetic information, pregnancy, political affiliation, marital or familial status, or any other status protected by law. Organizations must be willing, if asked, to attest they prohibit discrimination on these grounds.
We understand each community has unique challenges and opportunities. The programs we support align the top concerns of our communities with one or more of our giving priorities related to safety, workforce development, community spaces and environment sustainability. Our work in these areas builds safe, prosperous and vibrant communities – places people want to be.
