The Schneider Foundation — A positive force for change
We’re a company that gives back to the communities where we live and work. In 2021, our Schneider Foundation donated more than $2.25 million in grants to support and provide relief for local communities – that’s the Schneider way.
Through the Schneider Foundation, we gave to more than 400 organizations focused on one of four key areas: health and human services, children, education and arts and culture. As a customer, carrier or associate, you can be proud to be part of it all.
