L&P Supports Carthage Area United Way Golf Scramble

Even under hot skies, the Carthage Area United Way Golf Scramble was a great success. Together, we raised $14,000 to support important programs that benefit our local community.

The event brought together nearly 40 volunteers and 100 golfers for a day centered on teamwork, generosity, and community impact. We are grateful for everyone who contributed their time, support, and enthusiasm.

A heartfelt thank you to Roxanne Willard for her exceptional leadership and coordination, which helped make the event possible.

Thank you to all who participated and continue to exemplify our values of putting people first and doing great work together.

Giving Back Through Community Blood Drives

At Leggett & Platt, we believe in supporting the communities where our employees live and work. Recently, our employee resource group, W:ISE, demonstrated that commitment by leading a company-wide blood drive to support local communities through lifesaving blood donations.

W:ISE’s mission is to elevate diverse perspectives, celebrate individual contributions, foster personal and professional growth, strengthen support networks, build allyship, and drive positive organizational change throughout the company. In support of that mission, W:ISE organized blood drives in Carthage, Missouri, and at Davidson Plyforms in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Thanks to the generosity of employees at both locations, 64 units of blood were collected, surpassing the established donation goals. Building on the success of the recent event, Davidson Plyforms has already scheduled another blood drive for December.

These efforts reflect the culture we strive to foster across Leggett & Platt. Giving back is an important part of who we are, and we remain committed to making a meaningful difference in the communities our employees call home.

Strengthening Communities Through United Way

At Leggett & Platt, our mission is twofold: to make life more comfortable and bring about a better future. One way we live that mission is through our long-standing partnership with United Way.

For decades, Leggett & Platt employees have helped create stronger, healthier communities through their support of United Way organizations. These partnerships provide essential resources and services, from emergency assistance and healthcare support to literacy, education, and family-focused programs that improve the lives of those in need.

In 2025, Leggett & Platt contributed more than $1.7 million in cash and in-kind donations to charitable organizations. Through local United Way agencies, employees raised more than $94,000, and Leggett & Platt amplified those efforts with an additional $57,500 corporate donation to United Way agencies across the United States.

At Leggett & Platt, giving back is rooted in our People First value. Through our partnership with United Way, we’re making a positive impact on individuals, families, and communities – close to home and worldwide.
