Better Our Communities

What "Family" Means for Our Community

As a family-owned company with 8,000 associates across the globe, we reach beyond our own homes and offices and better the communities in which we live and work.

Our main charitable focus, readying the “next generation,” aligns with our long-term heritage of multi-generational family ownership as well as the primary focus our organization places on the development of our own leaders and associates. It includes two critical areas of external support:

  • Preparing the next generation of leaders through support for formal education programs and initiatives, as well as opportunities that teach valuable “life lessons”
  • Improving the health of the next generation through support for organizations that fight life threatening diseases or that work tirelessly to help feed those in need

In addition to our company’s main charitable focus, our associates also provide valuable support for local organizations and causes for which they have a passion, devoting their time and talents to enrich lives every day across their local communities.
