We believe in building strong relationships with the communities where we live and work. To achieve this, we actively seek out opportunities to strengthen our engagement with local stakeholders, such as through our mailing program and public live meetings. We also offer multiple avenues for our Company and employees to support and contribute to worthy causes in the communities.
Giving back
At Buckeye, we aim to have a meaningful positive impact on every community we engage with, including monetary donations, volunteerism, and philanthropy. The Buckeye Partners Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was established in 2019 to assist employees and communities who have suffered significant hardships. Through the generous contributions of our employees and the matching funds of the Company, the Foundation has paid out more than $1 million to date. We are also proud of our employees’ passion for volunteering and support their efforts to make a difference by offering each employee three community service days in addition to their standard vacation time.
Public Awareness
We engage with our communities through regular in-person interactions and targeted mailings under our Public Awareness Program. Our objective is to promote a positive relationship with community members, whereby we provide information on our industry’s efforts to ensure public safety in the transportation of petroleum products.
