Ventura, CA, March 20, 2023 – Procter & Gamble Oxnard Plant local employees raised a record $200,000 from employee giving in addition to over $51,000 in special events and sponsorship. In addition to giving, P&G employees volunteered their time by packing more than 3,000 Stuff the Bus backpacks and provided Welcome Home Baskets for families housed through United Way’s Landlord Engagement Program.
“The P&G Oxnard Plant is proud to partner with United Way to serve the most vulnerable in our community with this philanthropic support,” said Rachel Buchenroth, Plant Manager of Procter & Gamble Oxnard. “Our team really rose to the occasion through our engagement, innovation, and generosity of gifts. P&G has a longstanding commitment in creating positive change locally in Ventura County, and I am pleased with our collective impact.”
The Oxnard, California Procter & Gamble Paper Products Plant is a local manufacturer of Bounty paper towels and Charmin toilet paper. The P&G Oxnard Plant is excited to celebrate the 50-year anniversary of production this coming October.
As a global corporate leader with United Way Worldwide, P&G's philanthropy and volunteering is building stronger communities all over the world. In Latin America, P&G has made it possible to launch Born Learning, United Way's initiative to boost school readiness, in Panama, Peru, Mexico, Columbia, Brazil and Argentina. In Argentina, parents are getting more information to help their kids get ready for school, and childcare workers are receiving training in early childhood development. More than 2,600 young children have benefited as a result.
P&G received the Roy Pinkerton Award for outstanding corporate citizenship at the 2022 Spirit Awards Gala, the sixth time they’ve received the award since 2005.
“We are profoundly grateful for P&G’s longstanding leadership, volunteerism and philanthropy in the community,” said Mitchel Sloan, President and CEO of United Way of Ventura County. “In the midst of challenging economic uncertainity, P&G led by Plant Manager Rachel Buchenroth has continued to raise the bar in leading the way as a champion of improving the lives of our most vulnerable neighbors in need and making a lasting impact in Ventura County and beyond.”
