Sletten Construction and the Employee Owners continually strive to give back to the communities they are involved in with both dollars and time. Through the foundation of Employee Ownership and the established “Ownership Culture” in the company the employees work to make positive impacts in the communities they do business. The importance of giving back to our communities is a shared concept between all divisions in the company. An abbreviated list of projects benefiting by the contributions from the Employee Owners and other key management individuals of the company are:

The Sletten Cancer Institute in Great Falls - MT

The Sletten Hi-Line Cancer Institute in Havre - MT

The Andre Agassi Prepatory Schools in Las Vegas - NV

Boy Scout Camp in Cody - WY 

The Youth Ranch in  Boise - ID

In addition to the projects noted above, many additional organizations, groups, charities and etc. benefit from the individually established Sletten office Charity Committees. The committees are managed by the Employee Owners in the respective regional offices and are allocated funds for the year to distribute to their chosen charities, local community fund raisers, individuals, and families in need. During the holiday season The Employee Owners also adopt various organizations or families to spread a little holiday cheer. These organizations benefit from employee donations and the Charity Committee funds. In the past, elementary classes in low income school districts, group homes for teenagers, and families working with the Salvation Army are just a few of the recipients. It is with great pride and civic obligation that we all feel Sletten Construction must be a good community partner in all the areas we operate.
