Community
Involvement

At Ace, we pride ourselves on being the helpful place. We believe in giving back to the communities we do business in and helping those in need.

Ace Foundation

The Ace Hardware Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization that exists to enhance Ace Hardware's vision of being the "Helpful Place" in local communities through philanthropy. Established in 1991, the Ace Foundation provides support and opportunities for the Ace community to give back locally primarily through efforts for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and American Red Cross Disaster Relief. In addition, the Foundation oversees the Ace Helpful Fund, an employee emergency assistance fund available to qualified Ace team members who are facing financial hardship.


A Proud Partner of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals

Children's Miracle Network Hospitals raise funds and awareness for 170 member hospitals that provide 32 million treatments each year to kids across the U.S. and Canada. Donations stay local to fund critical treatments and healthcare services, and support research and training, all to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.

Ace stores support their local CMN Hospitals in a variety of ways including our Miracle Bucket promotion, change round up at the register, in-store fundraising events and more. And just like Ace, CMN Hospitals are local—which means the money raised at your neighborhood Ace goes to your local CMN Hospital.

Through Ace retailers and customers, vendor partners and Corporate team members, Ace has raised over $200 million for CMN Hospitals in the past 33 years.
