PBE Gives Back Logo

Through charitable corporate giving, the Principle Business Fund and Associate giving, PBE is honored to give back to community causes that align with our mission of being a principle-centered business that uplifts, enlightens and enriches the lives of those we serve.

KEY GIVING INITIATIVES

The United Way, Sunshine Communities and Alzheimer’s Association are all valued giving initatives of PBE and our Associates. Every year, our teams raise funds, donate volunteer hours and participate in activies to benefit these causes.

PRINCIPLE BUSINESS FUND

Every year PBE contributes a portion of its profits to charitable endeavors through the Principle Business Fund, a Donor-Advised Fund administered by the Toledo Community Foundation.

The Principle Business Fund seeks to assist 501(c)(3) organizations with charitable, educational, scientific, literary or religious purposes with emphasis on projects or programs relating to youth education, poverty eradication, intergenerational learning programs, excellence in journalism, environmental care, agricultural development, equality for women and encouragement of entrepreneurism. Grant-funding recommendations are managed by a committee consisting of nine PBE Associates.

ELIZABETH DOLE FOUNDATION

PBE understands that caring for a wounded, ill or injured Veteran in the home can have unique challenges. That’s why we have partnered with the Elizabeth Dole Foundation to help provide military and Veteran caregivers the support they need at the local, state and national levels. These programs engage individuals, organizations and communities across the country to get involved and make a difference in the lives of military caregivers.
