Community Involvement

Our commitment to doing the right things and doing things right extends to the communities where we live and work. Our support includes providing financial contributions and assistance to non-profit organizations. We also encourage our employees to become involved in community activities by volunteering in local civic and charitable organizations.

Our national sponsorships include:

• Boys and Girls Club
  A portion of Smucker’s Stars on Ice tour benefits the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, with a special focus on literacy efforts. Throughout the tour, skating stars make personal appearances at local clubs where they provide complimentary tickets and donate books.
• Feeding America
  For the past 20 years, Smucker has made product and monetary donations to this nationwide network of charitable food banks to help relieve hunger.
• United Way
  In addition to holding annual employee campaigns across our U.S. locations, Smucker donated $1 million to the Greater New Orleans chapter in support of the organization’s “No Place Like Home” project to help families affected by Hurricane Katrina move into permanent homes.
• American Red Cross
  We provide monetary and product support to the organization’s disaster relief efforts.
