Ways We Give Back

Bobby Dodd Institute

McKenney’s is a staunch supporter of Bobby Dodd Institute, an organization that empowers people with differing abilities by providing supportive programs to those who seek greater independence, confidence, and fulfillment through community inclusion.

At our Atlanta headquarters, our onsite deli is managed by Bobby Dodd Institute and provides on-site training for individuals in the program to prepare them for employment. We’re proud to host two permanent Bobby Dodd employees onsite who manage and develop these individuals so that they can become productive, proud and thriving members of our community.

For over 25 years, McKenney’s has been a proud partner to the United Way of Greater Atlanta—contributing more than $1 million since 2007.

We share the United Way’s vision to make metro Atlanta a place where all individuals and families thrive. Through our company-wide volunteer efforts and substantial annual donations, McKenney’s contributes to United Way’s community strengthening efforts. Like the United Way, we place a high value on helping to ensure babies are born healthy, children excel in school, young people avoid risky behaviors, families become self-sufficient, people have access to health care and the homeless find housing.

HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS

Healthcare organizations are an essential part of our community's health and wellbeing. That's why McKenney's supports our local healthcare partners and their foundations to demonstrate we care for those who love and work in our communities. In both Georgia and the Carolinas, our support helps expand access to healthcare workers and enable housing for families of patients. We know local hospitals depend on the support of their donors to provide the best possible care for their patients—which is why McKenney's remains committed to our partnerships with the healthcare community.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT, ONE PROJECT AT A TIME

McKenney’s is dedicated to the health of the environment on our own campuses and on the projects we’ve helped build across the Southeast. From responsible building practices to commissioning services to energy-saving systems, we are environmental stewards through and through.

To McKenney’s, sustainability means providing a healthy place to live for us, our children and our grandchildren. When it came time to expand our Atlanta campus, we knew that improving the health of our employees was our main priority.
