Community Involvement

Our funding decisions are based on a program’s demonstrated efficiency (maximizing goals while minimizing administrative costs), support by company volunteers, and advancement of employee and community well-being.  Funding emphasis is placed on Health & Human Services, Community Betterment, Youth Development, Education and Arts and Culture.
