As part of our West without Borders team member led giving program, West’s Korea team recently kicked off their first Food Drive event in Anseong, Gyeonggi in South Korea.

This spring, West team members in Jersey Shore, PA hosted an annual raffle featuring some outstanding prizes in support of Camp Victory, a camp designed especially for children with special needs. Children who live with chronic health problems, physical or mental disabilities, or the aftermath of catastrophic illness, know lifelong challenges. Camp Victory was built for these children. West’s Jersey Shore team has supported the important mission at Camp Victory through their West without Borders employee-led fundraising campaign for more than 40 years.

West’s three locations in Germany recently concluded an impressive fundraising campaign as part of West without Borders, West’s employee-led giving program.

As a caring corporate citizen, West has established a long-standing tradition of supporting the communities in which we work and live. Our comprehensive philanthropic efforts include three programs: 1) corporate giving through West, 2) the Herman O. West Foundation, a separate 501(c)(3) entity, and 3) our employee-led fundraising program, West without Borders.

In 2017, West employees have worked diligently to help the communities in which we live and work. Through West without Borders, West's employee-led giving program, employees have raised more than $3 million for a variety of charities around the world.
