TBC Employees Support 500 Cancer Patient Rides During Week of Action

TBC Corporation employees helped make 500 cancer patient rides available through the American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program.The effort took place during TBC Corporation Week of Action, the company’s annual volunteer initiative. Employees also assembled hygiene kits for local United Way organizations.

TBC partnered with United Way Worldwide and the American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery during the Sept. 21-25 event. Employees at TBC’s Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, headquarters participated in activities benefiting both organizations. In addition, employees at about 100 distribution centers across the U.S. participated.

TBC Corporation Week of Action encourages the company’s nearly 3,000 employees to volunteer in their local communities each year. Since launching the effort in 2024, employees have volunteered more than 2,000 hours.

“Giving back to the planet and making an impact in the communities in which we live and work is a core part of our vision,” said Ron Harper, chief supply chain officer of TBC Corporation. “Our Week of Action reflects our commitment to doing right by our communities in meaningful and tangible ways.”

Cancer Patient Rides and Hygiene Kit Donations

At U.S. sites, employees assembled hygiene kits containing toothpaste, tissues, shampoo, conditioner, combs and deodorant. Employees donated the kits to local United Way organizations.

Additionally, employees wrote personal notes to individuals receiving support from the American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program. The program provides free rides to cancer-related medical appointments. TBC’s support has made 500 cancer patient rides available through the program.

TBC Corporation Week of Action Extends to Mexico

In October, employees at TBC’s San Luis Potosí site in Mexico will volunteer with Fondo Potosino and Colonia Juvenil.

The organizations provide resources and create opportunities through programming, civic engagement and social support. During the visit, TBC employees will participate in mentorship and team-building activities with program members.
