Legrand | AV Better Communities
Transforming the Way People Live and Work
Legrand works to enhance both employee and community welfare through programs that help people enjoy healthier, more productive and more rewarding lives. Our initiatives range from building new homes for people in need to inspiring employee involvement.
Our Better Communities program supports employee volunteer and philanthropic efforts in the communities where we live and work. In order to produce the greatest possible impacts, we've focused our efforts on three specific causes: Better Homes & Neighborhoods, Better Schools, and Better Well-Being.
Our Better Communities Philosophy
Legrand | AV is committed to enhancing our local involvement efforts to truly make a difference. The Legrand | AV Better Communities committee of site captains, along with a network of volunteers throughout the organization across our multiple sites, sponsors organizations and events, giving special consideration to programs and activities in which Legrand | AV employees are involved.
We accept internal requests from employees, sponsoring programs within the focal areas and preferably those that employees are actively participating in and/or supporting. In 2022, Legrand | AV’s Better Communities team donated over $48,000 to 36 different organizations.
16 Hours of Volunteer Time Off
Full-time employees receive 16 hours of paid time off to volunteer in Legrand-sponsored Better Communities events. Each Legrand site has a Better Communities site captain who is responsible for organizing local volunteer events, including home builds and school projects.
