Building Good to Help Communities Thrive

McKinstry gives back through community service and philanthropy to protect our environment, uplift future generations and advance equity.

Living Our Values

Building Stronger Communities

Community service is core to our culture and values. McKinstry mobilizes our people nationwide to contribute thousands of hours through hundreds of community service projects each year.

Philanthropic Giving

  • McKinstry Charitable Foundation: McKinstry directs more than $1 million each year to nonprofits in our communities nationwide.
  • Impact Fund: We amplify impact by matching dollars for employee community service time.
  • People’s Choice: Our people direct corporate charitable giving to their preferred nonprofits aligned with our values.

“Building good is more than just talk at McKinstry. We’re taking deliberate and bold action to improve our communities because we know firsthand the value of community service, charitable giving and lifting others.”

—Ashley Ruiz, Vice President of Social Impact
