Community Outreach and the Saint-Gobain Foundation

Respect for and education of our stakeholders is one of Saint-Gobain’s core values. This commitment can be seen in our unwavering emphasis on the health, safety and well-being of our employees, and in the extensive array of sustainability training programs we make available to both our own people and our professional customers. We believe our role in the world goes further than the traditional approach to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For most companies, CSR is simply an obligation, but at Saint-Gobain, we see beyond the basic responsibility to the community and the environment, to the true partnerships that allow us to innovate. It’s something we like to call “Corporate Social Innovation” and it fuels our passion for invention with a purpose.

The Saint-Gobain Corporation Foundation provides financial and other types of assistance to a broad range of non-profit organizations. The Foundation prioritizes community involvement, energy and the environment as well as those causes closest to the hearts of our employees.

Saint-Gobain Foundation

Established in 2001 through the combination of the CertainTeed and Norton Foundations, the Saint-Gobain Corporation Foundation is committed to putting the power of our people and our products directly into the hands of the communities in which our employees live and work.
