MSC's Community Relations efforts are aimed at making a measurable impact in our local communities by promoting our unique culture of teamwork, delivering positive results, sharing and diversity. We seek to build strong partnerships with organizations and our communities at large through charitable contributions, in-kind donations, and volunteering across three key impact areas: Building Healthy Communities, Alleviating Poverty and Advancing Economic Empowerment, and Fueling Education, Training and Skills Development.
Our signature cause focuses on mobilizing the collective power of our 6,000-plus associates behind a single worthy cause: veterans and their families.
"MSC's involvement in the communities we serve dates back to 1941 and our founder, Sid Jacobson. Sid believed that companies were accountable not just to shareholders but to their communities. Our brand promise, 'Built to Make You Better,' honors that purpose and what we stand for - we exist for the betterment of others, not ourselves."
- Erik Gershwind, MSC President & CEO
