Three Pillars of Giving

We realize the success of our company has only been possible because of the communities we’re a part of, the people we’ve hired and their educational foundations. The ARCO Mission is to simply “Give Back and Make a Difference” through 3 Key Pillars:

  • Associates

    We match 100% of donations made by our associates and provide 1 week of paid leave each year to volunteer their time and talents.

  • Education

    We believe change is inspired through learning. We partner with existing programs that reinforce critical STEM education for future generations.

  • Community

    We believe in giving back to the communities that we live and work by sponsoring local charitable initiatives.

Associates

It’s heartwarming to see that a company as big as ARCO/Murray remembers to give back to communities and organizations funding amazing causes. It shows that ARCO/Murray supports what I consider important in my life outside of work.

Associates

We are so blessed to have management that wants to give back, wants to get involved and wants to support things you yourself want to support. They back it up with their checkbook.
