Brewer Makes Donations Totaling $225,000 to Three Local Charities
ST. LOUIS (Dec. 16, 2009) – Anheuser-Busch employees are once again getting into the spirit this holiday season by donating a total of $225,000 to three charities; the Make-A-Wish Foundation, 100 Neediest Cases and Toys for Tots. Each organization will receive $75,000 to help support programs they provide to assist children and families across our community during the holiday season.
“One of the great attributes of our employees is their willingness to give back to the community with not only their financial support, but by investing their time and talents in numerous organizations and programs that help thousands throughout the community,” said Jim Brickey, vice president of People for Anheuser-Busch, Inc. “These donations are just another example of how our company and our employees help the less fortunate and provide support to those in need.”

ST. LOUIS (Dec. 4, 2009) – Stella Artois, the best-selling Belgian beer in the world, is launching a global campaign asking adult consumers to help the Atlantic Rainforest, one of the most endangered habitats in the world.
ST. LOUIS (Nov. 24, 2009) – With countless holiday office parties,
home celebrations and festive get-togethers at bars and restaurants, it’s always a good idea to include a designated
driver as part of the party planning.
Today, many companies are “going green.” But
at Anheuser-Busch, we’re proud to say our tradition of environmental stewardship dates back to our founder, Adolphus
Busch. In the late 1800s, he began recycling leftover grain from the brewing process, using it for cattle feed, a practice
that continues today.
Anheuser-Busch and its more than 600 independently
owned distributors are proud to be industry leaders in the fight against alcohol abuse. Over the past two decades, we've
invested more than $750 million in community-based programs and national advertising campaigns to promote responsible
drinking and help prevent underage drinking and drunk driving.
At Anheuser-Busch, philanthropic outreach is at the
core of our business philosophy. Our company has long used the slogan “Making Friends is our Business,” and we extend
that belief to the communities in which we do business and where our employees live and work.
