Infographic: 2021 SuburbanCares Initiatives

As we look back on 2021, we realize this was another challenging year for many families in underserved communities, many of whom struggled for even the basic necessities. In 2020, much of our SuburbanCares efforts were dedicated to feeding healthcare workers at hospitals in hard-hit regions of the country. In 2021, the SuburbanCares corporate pillar centered on serving the communities in which we live and operate, as we shifted our focus to organizations that assist women and children in areas substantially impacted by the pandemic. During that time, many non-profit organizations remained open to serve working families, and resources were stretched thin. Through these efforts, we aimed to uplift those disproportionately affected by the ongoing crisis and provide essential support. The impact of our initiatives is detailed in the SuburbanCares annual report 2021, showcasing the resilience of the communities we serve. Together, we navigated this unprecedented time, reaffirming our commitment to fostering hope and stability for families in need. In addition to our dedicated efforts, the SuburbanCares 2021 highlights and achievements reflect the power of community collaboration and the generosity of our supporters. We established vital partnerships with local organizations to enhance our outreach and increase the resources available to those in need. As we move forward, we remain committed to building upon these successes and continuing to make a meaningful difference in the lives of families facing hardships. In addition to our core initiatives, we also established suburbancares charity partnerships that allowed us to amplify our impact through collaboration with local organizations. These partnerships were crucial in not only addressing immediate needs but also in laying the groundwork for long-term recovery and support. By working together, we reinforced our commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.

They coached children through on-line schooling and families through crises, and while many programs have returned to a more reasonable sense of normalcy, the ongoing financial aftermath of the pandemic has left a significant impact. Through the SuburbanCares initiatives, Suburban Propane staff from different regions worked with these organizations to provide support, essential items, and supplies most needed; from clothing, toiletries, and toys to hot meals and equipment. The amount of gratitude shown was overwhelming and we are incredibly grateful to be able to bring joy and comfort to families across the U.S. during this time. The dedication of these volunteers and the impact of their efforts were recognized when they were named SuburbanCares Award Winners 2022. Their commitment to uplifting communities amidst challenging times exemplifies the spirit of service that defines Suburban Propane. Moving forward, we remain committed to supporting families and fostering resilience in the face of adversity. As we look ahead, our suburbancares holiday giving initiatives will continue to expand, providing even more opportunities for employees and community members to come together in support of those in need. These initiatives aim to bring warmth and joy to families during the holiday season, ensuring that no one feels alone during difficult times. By focusing on both immediate needs and long-term support, we strive to create a lasting positive impact in the communities we serve. As we look ahead, we are excited to showcase the achievements and stories from our ongoing initiatives in the suburbancares annual review 2024. This review will highlight the transformative impact our teams have made in various communities, ensuring that support continues to reach those in need. We believe that by sharing these stories, we can inspire others to join us in our mission to uplift and empower families everywhere. Through our ongoing initiatives, we aim to further expand our reach and deepen our impact in the communities we serve. The upcoming suburbancares annual impact report 2023 will highlight the progress made over the past year and showcase the inspiring stories of those we have helped.
