Our Mission
Rust-Oleum Cares is committed to helping others in our community. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve his or her potential. We support organizations that change, restore, and transform the lives of others.
Our Program
Rust-Oleum Cares is a global initiative led by dedicated champions at our offices, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers. Through volunteer opportunities, sponsorships, and both monetary and in-kind donations, we partner with local charities to make a real difference in the communities where we work and live.
Key program highlights:
• Community Impact: Supports local charities to restore and transform neighborhoods.
• Employee Involvement: Associates actively participate in choosing causes and contributing to change.
• Supportive Leadership: Backed by senior leadership and driven by the passion of every associate.
By fostering a culture of giving, Rust-Oleum Cares empowers individuals and teams to create positive change. Together, we’re making a lasting impact.
Pillars of Support
We proudly support a range of causes and charities through an employee-driven program.
Here’s how it works:
- Most of the organizations we support are chosen by our associates.
- This approach empowers our team to directly influence the program and make a meaningful impact.
By focusing on employee suggestions, we ensure our efforts align with the values and passions of our team.
