Charity Mission

The Renewable Giving Foundation

At the Landfill Group, we have developed a charity we call The Renewable Giving Foundation with the mission to provide support to the communities where we live, work, & play. We are driven to do more, with less, and do good in the world, contributing 5% of our distributable free cash flow to our charitable efforts. As our charitable mission supports the communities where we live, work and play, the charities we donate to must align with our Values, Vision, & Mission.

Values: Family, Trust, Stewardship, Responsibility, Respect, & a Commitment to Excellence.

Vision: To be a Company that is surrounded by people who embody our values and achieve our goals; that is equitable; that promotes purpose; and encourages our employees to create meaningful quality of life.

Mission: Leave it better than you found it.

Our organization aims to create exceptional experiences that yield lasting results. Experiences help shape beliefs. Beliefs impact actions (or behaviors). Actions drive results. We believe in helping charities in the following sectors:

  • Youth Activities
  • Environmental Conservation
  • First Responders/Military
  • Abuse/Recovery
  • Medical Need
  • Poverty Assistance
  • Job Skills & Employment

We truly believe we can support the communities where we live work and play! Do you?

Reason for serving on the Charity Board:
Growing up my mother was a single parent, sometimes we had more, sometimes we had less but no matter our situation she always helped those in need and we never went without. In our home she had a saying "Always try do what’s right, always try to do what you can, then always try to do a little more." In a professional setting I am often described as "willing to help, happy to help, eager to please, etc., that also carries over into my personal life, it’s just in my nature. Helping others is something I am deeply passionate about and acts of service fulfill me. I have four children and my hope is that I am teaching them as my mother taught me , to always try do what’s right, always try to do what you can, then always try to do a little more.

Reason for serving on the Charity Board:
My reasoning for joining thee charity board comes from an expectation my family has of each other to be good and kind to others we encounter. We did not have much to give in respect to money but we had time and a stable home. I lost count of the number of people that came to live with us that for whatever reason were struggling in life. Watching my parents provide a stable caring home for all these different people from all walks of life taught me that when you can help another human you do. I got so much education (without knowing at the time) seeing how this affected a persons life. Fast forward a few decades and we now have this great opportunity to help in so many ways. So my "why" for trying to help make others lives better is, why not?

Reason for serving on the Charity Board:
Helping people was part of my upbringing. We didn’t have much money to give, but regardless we always contributed something. We frequently served others – volunteer work (Habitat for Humanity, Soup Kitchens, etc). Helping others personally fulfills my heart. I know this might sound selfish, but I love the feeling I get when know I’m impacting others in a meaningful way. Much of this has been driven by service actions and meaningful conversations. Now we are able to make an impact with monetary contributions which is why the Charity Bucket is part of the Waterfall Program. I hope we can reach more people and inspire hope and goodness in the world.
