Community Giving - It's the Boxley Way.
At Boxley, we feel it is our responsibility to take an active role in helping support our community. That's why we developed our program: Community Giving.
Boxley actively supports community human services through participation in United Way by matching 100% of their employee pledges. Over the current decade, Boxley and our employees have contributed more than $600,000 to the communities we serve.

Giving Back
All work and no play makes for a dull community. That's why we donated the property for the Boxley Fields sports complex - and we help maintain the facility.
Being a good neighbor means lending a helping hand in times of need. When the aging Fieldale Community Center swimming pool near our Fieldale facility was in danger of closing, Boxley donated the concrete to bring this valuable recreational resource back to life for kids of all ages
