Active involvement in the communities where our employees live and work is at the heart of Williams’ company culture.

In 2021, we contributed over $12.1 million to more than 2,100 organizations across 48 states through our community giving channels, including cash contributions, in-kind donations and matching programs. Despite continued challenges posed by COVID-19, Williams increased charitable contributions from 2020 to 2021.
