Charitable Contributions

Costco Wholesale’s primary charitable efforts specifically focus on programs supporting children, education, and health and human services in the communities where we do business. Throughout the year we receive a large number of requests from nonprofit organizations striving to make a positive impact, and we are thankful to be able to provide support to a variety of organizations and causes. While we would like to respond favorably to all requests, understandably, the needs are far greater than our allocated resources and we are unable to accommodate them all.

They also understand the practical mechanisms that allow charitable organizations to succeed and grow. As a group, Creag Foundation principals are dedicated to helping today’s most innovative programs improve the human condition in a wide variety of ways.

In Kind Donations

Intermodal Transportation Services

Intermodal transportation services provide applicable organizations with intermodal equipment and rail service throughout the CSX rail network, and afford these organizations an opportunity to reduce or eliminate their transportation spending.

Ideally, intermodal moves work best when freight is moving 500 miles or more. However, the in-kind moves program requires only that freight have an origin and destination within a combined 250 miles’ distance to a CSX intermodal facility.

CSX’s door-to-door product is an ideal solution for the in-kind moves program, as our trained team will pick up your freight at its origin and transport it to a terminal to be placed on an intermodal train. Then, we will pick up your freight at the destination terminal and deliver it directly to its endpoint. The door-to-door network provides service across the Eastern United States with its large nationwide network and trucking capability.

CSX will also work with you to determine the type of equipment that is an ideal fit to transport your freight. CSX has a large fleet of rail-owned containers, as well as an expansive network of channel partners that can provide equipment to fit your needs.

Railroad Equipment and Materials

CSX occasionally donates materials, supplies and used railroad equipment based on availability. The online in-kind application can be used to request the donation of railroad-related items, including retired rail cars when available. Please note that rail, rail ties and spikes are not available for donation or purchase. Applicants will be contacted if the requested item becomes available within 90 days of their online submittal. At that time, arrangements will be made to transfer possession of the requested item. All applicants will be asked to re-submit their application at a later date if the requested item does not become available within the 90-day period.

• Your organization is relatively young (ideally between two and five years old, although we will consider both younger and older organizations).

The Albert G. and Olive H. Schlink Foundation

Albert G. Schlink was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1885. Olive H. Schlink (nee Metz) was born in Norwalk, Ohio in 1887. They were married on August 4, 1914. Albert was both a physician and a surgeon. Along with his brother, Dr. Henry Schlink, they founded the Polyclinic Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. Previously, Albert served as Chief of Pediatrics in the hospital having practiced medicine in Cleveland for more than 52 years. Olive, a Norwalk, Ohio native, was one of the first nurses to graduate from St. Vincent Charity Hospital in Cleveland. She transferred to Cleveland Babies and Children’s Hospital where she served as supervisor for all Babies and Children’s branches and pharmacies throughout the Cleveland area. On June 17th, 1966, Albert and Olive, along with John E. Wise of Citizens National Bank and Frank J. Hiltz and Robert A Wiedemann of the law firm of Hiltz and Wiedemann Co., L.P.A. of Norwalk, Ohio incorporated the Albert G. and Olive H. Schlink Foundation. The foundation was funded with stocks purchased by Olive with grocery money she saved (squirreled away) every week. The first grant made by the Foundation was $500.00 to the Little Sisters of the Poor.

Presently, the Foundation is managed by the law firm of Hiltz, Wiedemann, Allton and Koch Co., L.P.A. in Sandusky, Ohio. Under the thoughtful guidance of its board of directors, annual gifts have grown from the first grant of $500.00 to one nonprofit to more than $1,400,000.00 to over 50 diverse public charities in 2023. The current board maintains as a core, those charities the founders had personal connection with and expanding to fund the ever increasing demands of today’s community nonprofits. While the location of the foundation has changed from Norwalk to Sandusky, the focus remains in Ohio and the citizens of Erie and Huron Counties.

The Albert G. & Olive H. Schlink Foundation (The Foundation) as well as the procedure and timing for doing so. All grant applications receive careful consideration and thoughtful evaluation by the board. While the board has no set geographic limitations, it does give special consideration to grant requests from organizations located in Ohio and preferably benefiting Erie and Huron Counties. There are no preset minimum or maximum grant requests amount limitations.

Max and Victoria Dreyfus Foundation Grant

The Foundation will consider requests to support museums, cultural and performing arts programs; schools and hospitals; educational, skills-training and other programs for youth, seniors, and persons with disabilities; environmental and wildlife protection activities; and other community-based organizations and programs.

Ashland County Pilot's Association--Leo K. Heyl Memorial Scholarship

Ken Heyl, along with family members and The Ashland County Pilots Association, chose to honor his father’s love of flying by creating a scholarship to assist students pursing a career in Aviation. Leo K. Heyl was born in Jeromesville, Ohio in 1912. His interest in airplanes and flying began as a young boy and persisted throughout his lifetime. His first airplane as a young man was an “OX-5 Travelaire” biplane. At middle age, he took time off from his funeral business to serve as a flight instructor for The U.S. Army Air Corp during WW II. After the war, he returned to Ashland and his funeral business. Maintaining his interest in flying, he gave flying lessons to many folks in the area. His love of flying never diminished. A few weeks before his death in 2002, he could still be seen driving to the Ashland County Airport and visiting with the other pilots. As a tribute to Leo’s life, 11 fellow Ashland County Pilots flew a “Memory Fly-by” as his committal service was being held in Ashland Cemetery.

Judith Halama Ebert Scholarship

Judith Halama (Judy) Ebert has established this scholarship as a result of her lifelong fondness for education, coupled with a strong desire to make an impact on an Ashland County student who is pursuing Education, with a preference for Special Education, as a career path.

Judy was an Elementary Education major at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, having graduated in 1955. Her daughter, Joann, also attended Miami, receiving her undergraduate degree in Psychology. She then received her Master’s Degree in Special Education from the University of Cincinnati and taught in that locale. A granddaughter with special needs was also a significant influence on Judy’s decision to create this scholarship fund.

It is Mrs. Ebert’s hope that this scholarship will reward a deserving student, with financial need, who has exhibited leadership skills, served the larger community and been engaged in school activities outside the standard curriculum.

Each year, the Mutual of America Foundation sponsors a national competition in which hundreds of organizations demonstrate the value of their partnership to the communities they serve, their ability to be replicated by others and their capacity to stimulate new approaches to addressing significant social issues.

Six organizations are selected by an independent committee to receive the Community Partnership Award.

• The Thomas J. Moran Award is given to the national award-winning program and includes $100,000 and a documentary video about the program.
• The Frances R. Hesselbein Award is given to a partnership that is addressing social challenges in more than one community, or which demonstrates the potential to be replicated in other communities. This recipient receives $75,000.
• Four other organizations are named Honorable Mention recipients for their programs, and each receives $50,000.

Since its inception in 1996, the Community Partnership Award has recognized 262 partnerships from cities and towns across America. Like so many of our clients working in the nonprofit community, Mutual of America is dedicated to having a direct, positive impact on society.
