These communities range from rural to metropolitan, each with unique priorities and needs. Our employees serve on local advisory committees for our Giving Fund and develop funding priorities within five focus areas to support their communities: affordable housing and shelter; education and youth development; environmental stewardship; human services and civic and cultural growth; and workforce development. These focal areas provide a strong companywide framework for giving while allowing flexibility to meet unique needs in our different communities.
