SECTION 3
COMMUNITIES AND FOCUSED GIVING NOVOLEX SUPPORTS THE COMMUNITIES WHERE WE OPERATE, seeking opportunities to give back through both donations and volunteer work. The Novolex Focused Giving Program directs our support towards organizations that align with our businesses, products and values. Accordingly, our support focuses on food and hunger needs, sustainability, and health and wellness. We incorporate employee feedback to determine which projects to consider and prioritize. In addition to implementing various initiatives for community support, we donate Novolex products, such as utensils, plates, cups and bags, to local non-profit organizations facing challenges. By donating Novolex products, we can contribute to meeting immediate community needs and make a positive impact on lives.
