Community Investment

• The Miller Lite Ride for the Arts – an annual event that has raised more than $6 million for the United Performing Arts Fund and its 36 beneficiary groups.
• The Lake Michigan Bradford Beach Revitalization Project, a private/public partnership that worked to achieve the Clean Beaches Council Blue Wave Certification the summer of 2009.
• An enterprise-wide United Way giving campaign, that includes a company match for both dollars and volunteer hours donated.
• Volunteering with Project C.U.R.E each quarter to help pack and send medical equipment and supplies to developing countries.
  • In fact, following the devastating earthquake in Haiti, we partnered with Project C.U.R.E. to deliver desperately needed medical supplies, like bandages, dressings syringes, IV starter kits, casting supplies and oxygen masks to quake survivors.

In October 2009, MillerCoors kicked off its first United Way employee giving campaign across all MillerCoors brewery and corporate locations. MillerCoors maximized contributions by offering a match for every dollar pledged. Recognizing that volunteer time also represented an equally meaningful contribution, MillerCoors offered an additional dollar match for every hour logged by employees who volunteered at a local organization of their choice.  

MillerCoors employees rose to the occasion, logging nearly 20,000 volunteer hours in 2009, and contributing nearly $900,000.  These impressive numbers helped MillerCoorsdonate $1.6 million to the United Way.
