Making Local Matter in Our Communities
Our communities are more than where we do business—they're where our employees, customers and members live, work and raise their families. CPI is proud to invest our time and resources in organizations and programs that help our communities thrive.
Community Involvement
Made up of CPI employees, our Community Involvement Committee helps support the communities we serve by identifying opportunities to give back and coordinating employee volunteers for local programs and events.

Employee Volunteerism

Looking for Support?
CPI is proud to support organizations, programs and events that strengthen the communities we serve. If your organization is seeking a donation, sponsorship or other support, review our Donation Guidelines to learn more about eligibility and the types of requests we consider.
Matching Grant Opportunities
CPI also partner with CoBank and the Land O'Lakes Foundation on matching grant opportunities that can help extend the impact of eligible community donations. Applications typically open in January each year. Additional information and an application link will be available here when the program is open.
Know Someone Who Makes Local Matter?
Our employees make a difference every day through exceptional customer service, a commitment to safety and involvement in their communities. The Making Local Matter Awards recognize CPI employees who go above and beyond.
