Our Communities

Reinvestment in communities and causes that benefit the greater good is an intrinsic part of our heritage and our culture. Our talents and resources are shared beyond the walls of our company every day because we believe — quite simply — that it is the right thing to do.

Community reinvestment takes place in three primary ways — through the GM Foundation, corporate contributions and employee volunteerism. The GM Foundation focuses on providing grants and partnering with vital nonprofits within the areas of education, health and human services, environment and energy, and community development. Corporate contributions are made through both cash and in-kind donations and include numerous cause-marketing initiatives tied closely to our brands. With more than 200,000 employees in more than 60 countries around the world, we can say with confidence and pride that wherever there is a GM facility in the world, there are GM people helping to strengthen their community.
