Environmental Stewardship
WE CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT
To us, sustainability means more than producing and providing better products and services. It means taking a holistic approach to the social, environmental, and economic aspects of business, and being responsible stewards of valuable resources. It also means helping customers accomplish their own similar goals.
We approach the activities used to design, produce, and deliver our products and services with a commitment to a greener tomorrow that is:
- Progressive
- Comprehensive
- Environmentally responsible
In addition to guiding the High companies' sustainability efforts, this expertise allows us to assist customers in creating energy-efficient and environmentally friendly projects.

Community Commitment
BRIDGE TO OPPORTUNITY
The High Companies and High Foundation have a long tradition of contributing to Central Pennsylvania and the communities in which we do business. Corporate giving, donation of time and talent from High coworkers, and the generosity of the High Family, together invest in agencies that provide vital support and services to individuals and families.
To increase the impact of these philanthropic activities, High Companies and High Foundation are aligned with a common goal to support people in their paths to personal stability—a Bridge to Opportunity.
High Companies' strategic focus areas
- Increase capacity of career and technical education
- Promote rational career exploration for students, parents, and teachers
- Excite students early on about STEM career paths
- Develop viable, sustainable paths out of poverty via "good jobs"
Beyond those areas above, we will continue to maintain a significant amount of broad support across many areas that connect with specific community needs and coworker interests.
