Resilient, sustainable communities

The Brighter Communities program gives preference to organizations and initiatives that have a meaningful and direct impact on the community, and nonprofit organizations and initiatives that are supported in partnership with the community. We encourage investing in initiatives that strengthen community involvement and inclusiveness.
Generally, we do not support sponsorships and club activities unless there is a unique initiative that complies with the Brighter Communities policy and guidelines.
In most cases, we will not contribute to religious, political, veteran, and fraternal organizations, except for related programs that directly benefit the community and not the organization. We do not contribute to organizations that support terrorist activities or discriminate.
If you're part of an organization that's passionate about helping the community, we encourage you to submit a grant request.
