Investing In Communities - Strategy & Approach - Altria

For Altria Group, its companies and employees, investing in our communities means more than just writing a check. We’re committed to helping make the communities where we live and work leading environments where our companies can succeed. We work to find long-lasting solutions to the challenges facing our communities, which is an important part of this commitment.

We use a systematic approach to support programs that strengthen and enrich our communities and improve the quality of life in the places we call home.

 

Strategy & Approach

The Altria family of companies shares a tradition of community involvement dating back over five decades. During the last 10 years, we have made more than $1.3 billion  in cash and in-kind contributions to hundreds of non-profit organizations.

Today, our companies focus their giving in four key areas:

Arts & Culture
Investing in leading arts and cultural organizations helps create vibrant and engaging communities.

Education
Good schools and strong support networks for young people are essential to developing a talented and diverse workforce.

Environment
Reducing our environmental impact promotes the sustainability of natural resources on which we depend.

Positive Youth Development
Investing in leading youth-serving organizations helps provide youth with the positive support they need to make healthy choices and achieve their full potential in school, work and life.

We also support civic involvement, humanitarian aid and the men and women who serve in our military and their families.

Our talented employees across the country make a big difference in their communities. To support their passion and encourage contribution of their time and talent, Altria’s “Contributing Together” program provides charitable giving and volunteerism opportunities to our employees.
