ASH GROVE CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

ASH GROVE CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

OUR ROOTS RUN DEEP.

The Ash Grove Charitable Foundation makes grants annually to support the work of public charities with tax exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code in the geographical markets that we serve.

As one of the largest cement companies in the United States and one of the oldest still in operation, Ash Grove plays an important part in the foundation and infrastructure of our country. And with plants from coast to coast, being a good neighbor in the communities in which we live and serve is a priority and part of our DNA.

Ash Grove territory is a lot of ground to cover. We believe in active participation to improve the existing and future quality of life in the communities we serve. This participation includes financial support to charitable activities. We aren’t just focused on building highways and buildings – we are also helping to build better communities.

We're honored to be part of the communities in which our employees live and work. In 2023, the Ash Grove Charitable Foundation donated approximately $735,000 to over 100 qualifying charities.

FOUNDATION PROJECTS

  • Branford High School Grant

    The Ash Grove Charitable Foundation granted Branford High School $25,000 to fund career and technical education. Branford High School has broken ground on its new building, which will house its welding students. We are grateful to be a part of their project!

  • Conservation Efforts in Midlothian

    The Midlothian, Texas plant had some fun in the mud! The group partnered with the Texas Conservation Alliance to plant milkweeds for the monarch butterflies! Texas plays a critical role in supporting monarchs. When monarchs migrate back to Texas in the spring, they look for milkweed plants and lay eggs on the leaves. The caterpillars only eat milkweed leaves. As such, milkweed is critical for the survival of monarchs. Without it, they cannot complete their life cycle and continue their migration!

  • North Central Texas Meals on Wheels

    The Ash Grove Charitable Foundation invested in the future of the North Central Texas Meals on Wheels and the seniors they serve.

  • Veteran's Memorial

    Monroe City, Utah received a grant from the Ash Grove Foundation to construct a Veteran's Memorial. The memorial recognizes veterans from all wars. Those who served in the Indian War, the Mormon Battalion, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, the Cold War, Gulf War, and the global war on terror are engraved upon the stones that now reside in the Monroe City Cemetery. Together with community donations, funds from raffles, and other sponsors, a total of $37,000 was raised to finish the Monroe City cemetery memorial, including five tablets with names of over 950 local veterans, two bronze sculptures, benches, and flag poles.
