We believe in investing in our community by helping local organizations. Each quarter we choose a community partner, raise funds for their cause, and match the donation up to $2,500! We also invest in our communities via sponsorships. If your organization applies to any of our community pillars described above, go ahead and submit a Topside CAREs Application.
Please note that we do not sponsor golf tournaments.

Giving guidelines and eligibility

It's vital that your donation/sponsorship request aligns with our community pillars. While we'd love to support everyone, we're unable to fill every request we're sent. Requests must be from local organizations within the King George, Westmoreland, Caroline, Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, and Stafford areas. All requests should be made at least 30 days prior to the event or sponsorship deadline, and you can expect a response within 14 business days.
