Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund

Caring about the communities in which we operate is a key component of our sustainability strategy. Since 1948, the Weyerhaeuser Company Foundation played an integral role in the philanthropic efforts of the company. Our formal philanthropic program is now directed through a Weyerhaeuser Company program we call The Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund. Combined, these programs have provided more than $215 million in donations over 64 years.

COMMUNITY GIVING

We believe it is important to nourish the quality of life in the communities where we operate, and help our communities thrive.

We offer grants through the Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund to support programs in local Weyerhaeuser locations in the U.S. and Canada to help cultivate growing minds and bodies, promote sustainable communities, and nourish the quality of life in these Weyerhaeuser communities.

Employees in our locations serve as advisors to the Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund, make funding recommendations based on the unique needs and priorities of their particular communities, and help create better places to live, work and play.

NATIONAL/INTERNATIONAL GRANTMAKING

A small portion of our grantmaking supports select, high-priority national and international initiatives that are directly related to the sustainability and importance of working forests and the products and services they provide for people and the planet. This may include sustainability issues related to forestry, sustainable forest products, housing, improving ecosystems, and renewable, green energy. Applications in this category are accepted by invitation only.
