Community Relations

At Cardinal Health, we are passionate about giving back. Our philanthropic work focuses on three key initiatives: Investing in healthcare and community health, supporting our employees’ commitment to their communities, and fighting prescription drug misuse.

What we do

Through the company and the Cardinal Health Foundation, we place a high priority on making communities stronger through philanthropic donations and volunteerism.

With key partners, we work to address challenges in the communities where our employees live and work, with the goal of creating positive, lasting change.

Supporting employees’ commitment to community

We encourage employees around the globe to volunteer for the causes they care most about. More than 70 percent of employees responding to a recent survey reported being actively involved in their communities. And each year, they donate more than $2 million to nonprofit organization—funds that are matched by the Foundation.
