Established in 2020, the employee-led Skyward Foundation channels our Company’s resources to support causes close to our team’s hearts. Through volunteerism, fundraising and advocacy, the Skyward Foundation has supported organizations benefitting our key focus areas that include health and human services, veterans and civic services, food insecurity and the environment. By the end of 2024, our combined employee and foundation contributions surpassed $627,000, demonstrating our commitment to supporting those in need.
The Skyward Foundation Matching Gifts Program was created to amplify employee impact, ensuring their contributions go even further.
