Strategically focused on supporting programs and projects that empower and inspire people.
Who We Help
The Sonnentag American Foundation targets our support to organizations in cities where County Materials Corporation and the family of companies has facilities. We partner with organizations that support individuals in four key service areas: Hunger & Homelessness Support, Service Members & Veterans Support, Sexual Abuse & Domestic Assault Services, and Mentoring & Skills Building.
Focus Areas
Hunger &
Homelessness
We believe that supporting community-led, self-help organizations directly benefits low-income, underprivileged, and the needy as well as homeless Americans, including men, women, low-income children and veterans of war.
Service Members &
Veterans Support
We believe in empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives and treating all military personnel with respect and dignity.
Sexual Abuse &
Domestic Assault Services
Our goal is to help sexual assault survivors heal and reclaim a sense of joy in their lives.
Mentoring &
Skills Building
We look for organizations that provide services and resources related to career and workforce readiness, financial literacy, entrepreneurship and leadership development, academic help, recreation opportunities, life skills training, STEM and youth mentorship.
