About Niagara Bottling, LLC
Niagara Bottling’s corporate philanthropic arm, Niagara Cares, focuses on community-level investments in places where the company operates, emphasizing parks and greenspace improvements, children’s education and scholarships, disaster relief (bottled water), and environmental stewardship through large-scale tree-planting. They fund both direct local nonprofits and national partners via programmatic initiatives and occasional strategic workforce development grants, favoring projects that demonstrate community impact and engagement of employees. Distinctive elements include sizable park grants through an NRPA partnership, a multi-year tree-planting commitment with the Arbor Day Foundation, and an active in-kind and employee-match program.
