Giving & Outreach

Our employee-owners are passionate. That passion extends beyond the everyday work we perform, and yet it is based on the same commitment to extraordinary outcomes.

Together we combine our contributions of time, talent and money to empower the individuals and organizations making a substantive difference in our communities. We do so individually through our people and offices, and collectively through the Burns & McDonnell Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization largely focused on three targeted areas of interest: education, community development and health.

We are committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work. It’s more than philanthropy — it’s a core element of our identity.

We provide financial support, but we also teach. We swim, bike and run to raise funds. We paint and plant. We create and support exciting educational programs, and we encourage young people to dream big.
