We believe that the future of paper deserves a company committed to the success of the entire ecosystem. From the forests we love, to the communities where we live, to those who rely on our paper, we know that the well-being of each depends on the well-being of all.  

To accomplish our community engagement strategy, we leverage our people (volunteers), products (paper donations) and resources (community grants and strategic partnerships) to support our communities. Since 2021, we invested $9.4 million in partnerships and programs that support our strategic initiatives.

Global Day of Service

 

 

 

To deliver on the promise of paper, we conduct an annual Global Day of Service to support childhood education in our communities. With our community partner WeHero, we created a global education access project.

Since 2022, Sylvamo employees have packed more than 10,500 school supply bags for local students in Europe, Latin America and North America.

“I am amazed at the enthusiasm of our employees around the world who want to give back to their communities. Our volunteer program is a powerful vehicle for creating meaningful change in local communities through the promise of paper.”
