Community engagement
At General Mills, we work with partners – community, brand and corporate – on initiatives that improve lives.
Community Action is the name we give to all that General Mills, its employees and retirees do to nourish communities.
As a global leader in the food industry, General Mills’ mission is Nourishing Lives by making lives healthier, easier and richer.
At General Mills Community Action, we work to nourish communities with breakthrough ideas, championship people and financial resources.
That means working with communities to have an impact that enriches the lives of children and families, and enhances the health and vitality of neighborhoods and cities around the world (in locations where we have General Mills employees and operations).
Under the Community Action umbrella, we have the General Mills Foundation, brand partnerships, disaster relief, gift-matching, international giving, hunger relief, United Way and volunteerism.
Our focus is to support innovative nonprofit organizations and programs that improve our headquarters and manufacturing communities, with a focus on youth nutrition and fitness, social services, education and arts and culture.
Providing financial support to nonprofit organizations.
Our commitment falls under
three broad categories.
