Britco supports numerous community organizations through an employee driven campaign called Building Stronger Communities. Through this initiative Britco and its employees focus on assisting organizations that support youth, education, the environment and health.
At Britco we recognize that what we do today plays an important role in building the foundation for healthy and thriving communities tomorrow. As we build our business in markets around the world we are also committed to building stronger communities here at home.
Britco's tradition of giving back to the community dates back to the vision Rick McClymont and David Taft had when they started Britco in 1977. For over thirty years Britco management and its employees have been building a company grounded in a tradition of giving back to the community.
Because volunteering plays an important role in bringing people together and enriching communities, Britco also offers opportunities for employee participation in community events supported through Building Stronger Communities. In 2008, the following are some of the organizations Britco will be supporting :
