Who we are:

We strive to make The Wonderful Company true to its name through our mission to bring positive, multi-generational change to the communities we serve by leveraging our business acumen and hands-on approach to Corporate Social Responsibility. The purpose of our work is to disrupt the cycle of poverty in the Central Valley of California through a relentless focus on the social determinants of health with an unwavering commitment to helping the region's children grow up with better opportunities than their parents had.

Our Central Valley Health & Wellness programs provide completely free comprehensive onsite healthcare to our employees and their families. Our educational programs reach students across 165 schools throughout the Central Valley, with world-class academic initiatives that support them every step of the way, from cradle to career. And our active involvement in the heart of our communities brings infrastructure investments and youth and adult programming that helps build a more vibrant and sustainable society.

Our approach is unique, with our owners personally overseeing these efforts. We are deeply committed to bringing positive, multi-generational change to the communities we serve.

Our work also extends beyond the Central Valley. Giving back and leaving the planet better than we found it will be our legacy. To learn more about our programs and read our entire Corporate Social Responsibility report, click here.

A day in the life at Wonderful:

At the Wonderful Company, we take an active role where we live and work in California's Central Valley by developing our communities, building world-class health and wellness systems for our employees, and providing education for our youth. Wonderful Education's core purpose is to provide the youth in San Joaquin Valley communities with experiences and opportunities that lead them to promising futures.

Our students are critical components and the perfect intersection of these three efforts because we don't believe in just today, but in building sustainable programs that will last tomorrow and evolve to become systemic over time -- and this future, this tomorrow, is where our youth can act as change agents to continue the work we have started.

Our goal is that all Scholars are supported during their time in the College Success Program and are successful in finding a career that they are passionate about post-graduation.
