Our neighbors depend on us, just as we depend on them, so we are committed to improving the quality of life in the communities in which we work. At Southwire, this goes beyond providing jobs and paying taxes; it means supporting those in need with time, talent and financial resources.

Our Approach

We enthusiastically share our time, talent, and financial resources to help uplift those in need. Our goal is to enable and engage our workforce to build more sustainable communities. Through volunteerism, community partnerships, and charitable giving, we are bringing this goal to life. 

16,898 volunteer hours contributed by Project GIFT® volunteers in 2023

$900K distributed to team members in need through the POWER Fund in 2023

Thousands of bags filled with school supplies distributed to students

Nearly $3 million contributed in charitable donations with $750,000 focused on DEI initiatives

Creating shared value is at the heart of our commitment to Giving Back

Our neighbors depend on us, and we depend on them. That’s why creating shared value is at the heart of Southwire’s commitment to Giving Back. We take time to understand the needs of our communities and engage them to provide purposeful support. Along the way, we create value for Southwire by strengthening our relationships with team members, neighbors, and future talent. Our charitable giving includes: 

Giving Back

Achieve 100%
of Southwire's Giving Back communities engaging with at least two annual events by 2025. (This should include one Southwire signature event and one event that aligns with Southwire's Giving Back strands.)

0%

Progress to Date: 86% of Southwire's Giving Back communities engaged with at least two annual Giving Back events in 2023.

Taking Care of the People Behind the Power™ with the POWER Fund

The POWER Fund remains focused on taking care of Southwire team members faced with emergency circumstances outside of their control.

In 2023, the POWER Fund distributed approximately $900K to team members facing hardship. Among other circumstances, these funds supported team members dealing with a serious illness or injury, the effects of a natural disaster, and an immediate family member’s loss of life.

Fostering a Culture of Service Through Project GIFT®

Supporting Veterans

Southwire has been a longtime partner of the Wounded Warrior Project®, and we were excited to expand our work with veterans in 2023. The highlight was an event called The Warrior Classic, which came together through a partnership between Project GIFT® volunteers, Southwire’s Veterans Network and the Atlanta Braves® Foundation. The event engaged veterans who had opportunities to meet former Braves® players and take batting practice on the field at Truist Park.

Walk for Water

Through our partnership with Walk for Water, team members raise awareness of the distance many people walk to meet their daily water needs. The international nonprofit—which we have previously supported through charitable donations—is dedicated to ending the global water crisis by developing sustainable and safe water, sanitation and hygiene solutions.

Atlanta United and Trees Atlanta

Southwire partnered with Atlanta United to host a Youth Summit for local students. Participants in Southwire’s 12 for Life® program joined students from the HOPE Strong and the Latin American Association to volunteer with Trees Atlanta, a nonprofit community group that protects and improves Atlanta’s urban forest.

Toys for Tots Collection Drive

We host an annual toy drive with the help of Project GIFT® volunteers and community members in Carrollton, Georgia, to bring hope and joy to less fortunate children throughout the U.S. during the holiday season.

Disaster Relief

Southwire hosts disaster relief drives to collect monetary donations and essential supplies when our communities are impacted by disaster. In 2023, our team members provided critical support for those affected by the deadly storms that swept the Southeast, and the wildfires in Hawaii. Team members also volunteered for local nonprofit organizations to support various initiatives. While we never want to see our neighbors face such challenges, we were proud to support them in their time of need.

Back to School Drive

Through our annual Back to School Giveaway, our team members distribute bags of school supplies to students in need. In 2023, we saw broad engagement from nearly all Southwire locations, including sites in Canada, Mexico and Honduras, and throughout the U.S.
