Community Stories

Real Impact, Real People

Our commitment to community outreach is grounded in action. Through thousands of employee volunteer hours, charitable contributions and strong civic involvement, U.S. Sugar works to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our neighbors.

We actively support youth athletics, local schools and community events. From sponsoring Little League teams to mentoring students and coaching sports, our employees are engaged and enthusiastic community members. We donate school supplies, uniforms and more—helping kids grow, play and thrive. One of our favorite employee traditions? Partnering with camps to serve sno-cones that make summer days even sweeter.

Helping Students Thrive

At U.S. Sugar, we believe every student should have the tools they need for success during the school year. As part of our ongoing support for public education, our back-to-school drive provides school uniforms and thousands of backpacks filled with supplies to students throughout the South Florida region.
