community service
In McCormick's 115-year history, the record of community service is long and proud. Communities around
the world where the Company has facilities have benefited from a variety of philanthropic activities.
Through financial contributions and the active participation of employees, McCormick supports numerous
causes that improve the quality of life.
The Company has a formal program of charitable giving that grants funds to worthwhile causes with
civic, health, welfare, education and the arts receiving the most attention. Programs like the Unsung
Heroes Awards, student scholarships, and Charity Day, which fosters employee giving to a wide range of
civic causes, have existed for more than 60 years.
The McCormick Community Service Award was initiated in 2004 to honor employees who devote time
and energy to better their communities. The grand prize-winner was employee Steve Sausnock, seen
receiving the award from Chairman Bob Lawless (1). On behalf of the Optimist Club, Steve distributed the
$25,000 grant to numerous charities and organizations such as the Providence (Md.) Volunteer Fire
Company (2), "Shop with a Cop"which pairs needy children with police officers for mentoring (3), and
Our Daily Bread soup kitchen (4). The Community Service Award is the latest chapter in McCormick's
long history of philanthropy.
