We support our community and the local charities that serve Naperville and the surrounding suburbs. Whether we’re cleaning up our adopted trail, collecting donations that will help families in need, or volunteering at special events, we show our appreciation to the community that’s home to our headquarters by giving back.
Bluco is proud to provide any kind of support to organizations that need it most. But one of our favorite kinds of support is the hands-on kind — those occasions where we get to make a difference by spending time with the folks who need our help. The charity events we participate in give us a chance to do just that, and we’re always ready to lend a hand.
We donate to organizations that further the education of young people, fund research for treatments and cures of chronic disease, support veterans of the United States Armed Forces, and feed hungry children around the world.
Bluco Cares makes a special effort to help support organizations that our employees support. In addition to choosing events or fundraisers that benefit groups selected by our team, this year we developed a program that also matches a portion of employee donations to qualified charities.
Bluco Cares is a pivotal part of what makes the culture here at Bluco so successful. We are incredibly blessed with the opportunities we have here and it’s important to us to find impactful ways to give back to our communities.

I've been involved in education my whole life, so I feel proud serving students and teachers in any way that I can, whether it’s donating gently used supplies, or giving my own time.

My family rides on the trails along the Illinois Prairie Path all year long. I’m so glad to have a way to help keep those trails clean for everyone who enjoys biking or riding along them.

On a cool Saturday this September, 61 Bluco employees, family and friends came together to participate in a 5K Run/Walk to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). Bluco donated $25 to MDA for each person that completed the walk, for a total of $1,525 to be used toward the fight against neuromuscular disease. Muscular Dystrophy affects 250,000 people in the United States, including one of our own staff members. We hope this donation will help fund the research that someday brings about better treatments, therapies, and even a cure.
