CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP. IT’S ONE OF OUR CORE VALUES. AND, WE’RE COMMITTED.
Many companies write checks to support charities. It’s important, and as an enterprise, Olympic Steel and our subsidiary brands support numerous philanthropic endeavors with Corporate donations. But, what we value most is the generosity and commitment to community demonstrated by our employees. In 2022, Olympic Steel employees supported dozens of local and national non-profit organizations through over $111,000 of cash support and countless donations of blood and plasma, food items, clothing, medical supplies, toys, pet supplies and volunteer hours.
As a critical piece of the American manufacturing supply chain, the work we do – in every business segment, every division and every role across the organization – has an impact. We supply material and manufacture parts and products that support our country’s farming and food supply, infrastructure, transportation, construction, medical services, military and so much more. Our metal keeps people fed, keeps them moving and keeps them safe. In 2022, a team of employees represented Olympic Steel at the Great Lakes Science Center Manufacturing Day event in Cleveland, OH. Over 600 students learned about the endless opportunities available in manufacturing and at Olympic Steel.
Giving back to the communities is a very special part of our culture, and every day, we see examples of employees selflessly supporting worthy causes across the country.
The Chairman’s Citizenship Award recognizes employees for outstanding contributions to the community and leadership in demonstrating Olympic Steel’s Citizenship Core Value. These are the folks going “above and beyond” for the charities of their choice outside of work.
In 2023, we’re proud to acknowledge two employees who, because of their hard work and dedication to their communities, are able to direct a cash donation in their name to the charitable organization of their choice.
In 2022, we’re happy to recognize the work of four selfless employees who will each have the opportunity to direct a cash donation in their name to the charitable organization of their choice.
In 2021, we were pleased to celebrate the efforts of three outstanding employees. In honor of their contributions, each of our Award recipients was able to direct a cash donation to the organization of their choice.

And, speaking of our Executive Chairman, he leads by example! In 2022, Michael Seigal received the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honor – the highest civil medal awarded by the President of Israel for outstanding contributions to the State of Israel or to humanity. Mr. Siegal earned this recognition for his many contributions to the State of Israel and his lifelong support of Jewish people around the world. He has served in a variety of roles, both publicly and behind the scenes, in organizations that advocate for the advancement of Jewish individuals and causes, including Chairman for the Jewish Agency Board of Governors, Chair of the Development Corporation for Israel (Israel Bonds), and Board Chair of the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) and of the Cleveland Jewish Federation.
In addition to the local efforts organized by individual Olympic Steel divisions and their teams, employees company-wide come together once a year in partnership with the
Make-A-Wish Foundation® for an initiative we call “Working for Wishes.”
Our company-wide partnership with the
Make-A-Wish Foundation® began in 2004 as part of Olympic Steel’s 50th Anniversary celebration. Employees selected the organization with the hope of granting a single wish – at the time, a $5,000 commitment. That first year, the company’s four-week fund-raising efforts far exceeded expectations, granting three wishes with a campaign total of $17,500.
And, it’s only grown from there!
To date, Olympic Steel employees have raised in excess of $1.5 million and granted more than 150 wishes in support of the
Make-A-Wish Foundation® mission to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.
We’ve Met The Families. We’ve Seen The Impact. And, We Believe In The Power Of A Wish.
2020
With some creative thinking and pure determination to not let a pandemic stop 15 consecutive years of granting wishes, Olympic Steel divisions raised over $40,000, granting at least 8 wishes, for the Make-a-Wish Foundation®.
