Giving and Serving Together focused on Housing and Education for Generations to Flourish
Keim Cares 501c3 was established in 2014 to give name to a long tradition of Keim coworkers caring for each other and being the hands and feet of Jesus by noticing the needs of those around them. More than a decade later, it continues to be an ongoing, active expression of the Keim Noble Purpose: "Building the Kingdom together through diligent stewardship and abundant generosity."
We exist to create meaningful opportunities where coworkers, customers, and community members can actively participate in advancing God’s Kingdom, nurturing lives of purpose and service. Through a commitment to lifelong learning, we bridge the classroom and the workplace, preparing individuals for meaningful futures, strengthening families, and helping communities flourish together. At the same time, we are dedicated to improving the housing situation in Holmes County and beyond, recognizing that access to a safe, dignified place to live is a foundational human need and a core of holistic wellbeing and thriving communities.

Let's partner to make a lasting difference
Sharing
The original Keim Cares began in 2014 with the mission of "giving financial support and easing hardships of fellow employees and community friends." This mission continues as the Sharing branch of an expanded Keim Cares. The Sharing branch receives request forms for needs and allocates funds donated by employees, the company, and the public to share with those in need.
Serving
The Serving branch of Keim Cares connects co-workers to serving opportunities where they can give of their time and talents to help co-workers, customers, and communities in need.
Learning
The Learning branch provides educational opportunities for our communities, in addition to what Keim already offers to co-workers and customers.
Community
The Community branch actively participates in partnerships and projects that fill gaps and meet needs to support health and growth in communities to which Keim co-workers and customers are connected.
