volunteering also helps advance our employees’ professional and leadership development goals. In 2024, we launched a new initiative, All Hands on Deck, to focus and deepen the impact created by our people. All Hands on Deck guides individuals and teams at Trex toward local organizations that need timely volunteer help. When employees from our Materials team gathered in Winchester to attend a quarterly meeting last year, All Hands on Deck helped arrange for them to also spend several hours working on projects at the nearby Highland Food Pantry. Volunteers completed a much-needed overhaul of the nonprofit’s food storage areas, enabling Highland to use its available pantry space more efficiently. We are planning more All Hands on Deck projects throughout 2025 to benefit local nonprofits and draw our team members closer through these shared volunteer experiences. LOGO USAGE
Also, Trex employees celebrated Earth Day in April 2024 by volunteering their time to participate in various community cleanup and beautification events in Winchester and Fernley. During this annual tradition for our company, nearly 40 team members helped rehabilitate nature trails, plant trees, remove litter, clear brush, and make other improvements to public spaces.
Our 2024 United Way campaign raised more than $281,000, which was 11% higher than the $254,000 contributed in 2023. In addition to matching employees’ contributions dollar-for-dollar, we further support the work of United Way through employee volunteer projects at local nonprofits as part of our annual Trex Day of Caring. In addition, our Director of Corporate Affairs serves as chair of United Way NSV.
HIGHLIGHTING CAREER POSSIBILITIES ACROSS OUR INDUSTRY In 2024, our educational support included helping the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber present a career awareness day involving 20 high school juniors and seniors. We sponsored the Chamber’s inaugural Arising Leadership Program, during which two of our senior leaders spoke with students about what Trex does and the multifaceted career opportunities in our industry. The event also featured a panel discussion with five of our collegiate interns, who shared their experiences at Trex and answered students’ questions while the others sat on a hillside overlooking Lake Frederick.
Support for United Way
Trex has partnered with United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley (NSV) in Virginia, the local chapter of one of the world’s largest privately funded charities, for many years. Through our annual United Way giving campaign, we help the charitable organization fund projects that advance education, healthcare, employment, financial security, and other hallmarks of a thriving community.
