A company cause is a cause or charity that is ElkCorp's specific philanthropic commitment. In addition, ElkCorp donated $10,000 to the Ronald McDonald House, which has been chosen as the company cause for 2004 primarily because all proceeds go to the local Dallas chapter. The company has provided monetary donations to charities while employees have volunteered for Habitat for Humanity, cooked dinners for young cancer patients and their families, and raised about $6,500 for the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas in a 100-mile (161-km) bike ride.
