The Phillips Group Events and Community Involvement

Events

The Phillips Group is proud of its civic involvement and partnerships. We support local communities in South Central PA through our membership in many chambers of commerce and our donation of human and financial resources to charitable organizations.

For many years, Phillips has been a strong supporter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Central PA CF Chapter including our title sponsorship of the local CF Golf Tournament. We also made major contributions to Keystone Human Services, Big 33, South Central PA Food Bank, and the YMCA. Phillips annually provides financial support to over 200 local charities.

Phillips employees give generously to many causes. They annually raise thousands of dollars for our own Adopt a Family Christmas benefit. In 2008 they also raised over $25,000 for the United Way and gave their time and more money to Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Feel Your Boobies, March of Dimes, American Cancer Society, American Lung Society and other important causes.
