Picking up our community with charitable giving
Our mission is to help meet the needs of the communities we serve by supporting organizations that improve
overall quality of life; specifically in areas of youth, education, elderly and the environment. Waste Connections
also proudly sponsors events that enhance the vitality of our neighborhoods, celebrates our community’s
successes and supports local charities.
Waste Connections of SW Washington receives hundreds of requests for donations annually. In order to
ensure donations are consistent with our mission and that all requests are given a fair review, Waste
Connections will consider requests for charitable donations from organizations that qualify for funding
or in-kind services.
To qualify for donations or in-kind service, your event must be open to the public. Priority will be given
to 501(C)(3) organizations, local governments, and events that closely align with the charitable giving
mission statement.
Waste Connections of SW Washington and its employees contribute hundreds of hours and thousands
of dollars in the communities in which we live and work. Through charitable giving, we aim to
strengthen our communities now and in the future.
Requests for donation of cash or in-kind services should be submitted in writing as far in advance as
possible, but at least four weeks prior to your event. Please fill out the attached form completely.
Send your request for donation to the charitable giving committee.
