National Gypsum has donated $1 million to be shared by a total of 34 schools and nonprofit organizations where the company’s associates live and work throughout the United States and Canada. This year’s donations are intended to primarily support education and the next generation of students focused on science, technology, engineering, art and math areas of learning.

For the past three years, associates company-wide have actively participated in the selection of local schools and nonprofit organizations that receive financial donations through the NGC Giving initiative. Associates from Gold Bond Building Products, LLC; Gold Bond Canada, Ltd.; PermaBASE Building Products, LLC; ProForm Finishing Products, LLC; and Unifix Inc. nominated this year’s recipients. As part of its ongoing commitment to local communities where the company has operations, National Gypsum has donated $3 million in conjunction with the NGC Giving campaign since 2021.

The selected organizations have made a deep impact on students’ lives and education. They provide a range of STEAM-related education initiatives, including tutoring services to underserved students, learning enrichment activities and training programs for future STEAM professionals.

“At National Gypsum, we’re dedicated to Building Products for a Better Future,” said Thomas C. Nelson, chairman, president and CEO of National Gypsum Company. “That requires building better futures for our associates, customers and communities. I’m grateful that National Gypsum has the opportunity to support and empower such important organizations in the communities where we conduct business.”
