Corvias team members spent more than 400 hours volunteering in 2022, and through the company’s Two for One Matching Program, donated approximately $120,000 to charitable causes. Corvias Foundation awarded 28 college scholarships worth more than $400,000 to military dependents and children of Corvias employees.
Corvias also supports business and entrepreneurs with a focus on contributing to the educational goals of military families; local communities; and small, woman, minority, and veteran-owned businesses. In 2022, Corvias subcontracted approximately $70 million to local businesses and $74 million to small businesses within its military portfolio and continues to run a mentor-protegee program for local and small business owners.
Corvias is dedicated to conserving natural resources and made more than 160,000 water and energy saving improvements to on-base homes at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Fort Liberty, Fort Meade, Fort Riley, Fort Novosel, and Fort Sill. These improvements are projected to save more than $240 million over the next 30 years. Fort Riley has been designated a top solar energy producer in Kansas with the installation of rooftop solar systems that generate 17 megawatts of energy.
“Our ongoing commitment to giving back to the communities where we live and serve is at the core of our business and partnerships,” said Chris Wilson, Corvias CEO. “We are dedicated to contributing to the betterment of communities beyond just the work we do. I am always excited to see how our efforts leave a lasting impression with the families and people we meet along the way and look forward to seeing what we can do in the years to come.”
