Community Engagement
FILAMATIC Foundation – Filling Families with Hope
By taking a personal approach with local communities, we build strong relationships by creating an environment of trust, respect and shared values. Through community service, developmental programs and ongoing partnerships, we empower people to work together and help make the world a better place for us all.
And as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the impact to families and communities are increasingly coming in to focus. Relief and response efforts are developing rapidly, with governments, companies and communities all lining up to support. FILAMATIC is proud to help our local communities by supporting industry partners in manufacturing much needed COVID-19 test-kits, vaccine supplies and personal care products (e.g hand sanitizer). Our corporate team is working closely with community partners to ensure they are supported during this time with education and awareness. We see our support and community response efforts continuing to evolve in the weeks and months to come as the situation develops.
The FILAMATIC Foundation – Filling Families with Hope supports a variety of community initiatives: holiday gift programs, non-profit fundraising, employee donation drives, education/awareness efforts, and corporate financial commitments. We believe each and every person can make a very real impact in this world, so we encourage employee participation and collaborative partnerships.
The FILAMATIC Foundation is proud to work with the following organizations and community efforts:
- Catherine’s Family and Youth Services
- Salvation Army
- Parklane Neighborhood Association
- Emilie Wall Foundation
- Sarah’s Hope
- Toys for Tots
- National Night Out
Holiday Gift Programs
Smiles behind the masks
Through the FILAMATIC Foundation, holiday presents are only a first step in delivering a longer-lasting gift. We believe in the gift of hope and a brighter future through compassion and kindness.
Millions of families struggle throughout the year and the holiday season makes those challenges even more apparent. We are proud to work with members of our communities in making the world a better place for all.
Community Programs and Events
Making a Difference Together
Through a variety of focused efforts, the FILAMATIC Foundation gives our employees a real opportunity to make a difference with financial donations and participating in community events and programs. We believe in a giving philosophy that is centered around employee engagement while strengthening and supporting community relationships.
We believe every single person can make an impact, so we strongly encourage employee participation and community partnerships.
Employee Donation Drives
Creating shared values
No matter the cause or effort, the FILAMATIC family has always stepped up to help in times of need. Even before the pandemic, employees championed social responsibility and always looked for different ways to give back to local communities.
When the pandemic began, traditional volunteering and support became more difficult. Through these challenges, FILAMATIC employees saw an even greater need to help and answered the call. With the help of community organizations and key members of the community, the FILAMATIC Foundation helped identify new and inventive ways for employees to give back while still following COVID-19 policies.

The FILAMATIC Foundation – Filling Families with Hope is an ongoing effort to express our belief in the inherent dignity of all people. We are guided by a vision of social responsibility in which all individuals, communities, and peoples work towards an understanding of each others human rights.
Across seven decades, some of the principles that FILAMATIC was built upon was leadership, ethics, and often ideas ahead of its time. So, while the technology, innovation and specifics of business have evolved over the years, the foundation of these approaches have long distinguished FILAMATIC and continues to lead us into a better tomorrow.
