We're More Than a Business.
For several years, Atlantic Knife has been building strong relationships, engaging volunteers, and providing financial and in-house support to organizations, institutions and programs that make a positive impact upon our local communities.
Atlantic Knife focuses its philanthropy in key strategic areas: the well-being of local communities, the stewardship of the environment, and encouragement of positive impacts upon communities and local businesses.
We engage directly and deeply in our respective communities, providing what we can for their needs.
We give in many ways: through monetary contributions; product and resource donations; sponsorship of community-enhancing events; volunteer engagement; and community advocacy.
