At LyondellBasell, we are committed to being a responsible, good neighbor in the communities where we operate. Through our global corporate citizenship program, Advancing Good, we invest in charitable organizations supporting three key focus areas: Advancing Our Communities, Advancing Our Planet, Advancing Tomorrow's Workforce.

As our team around the world produces the materials and products that are key to advancing solutions to modern challenges, we are also advancing the positive future we know is possible through employee volunteerism and investing in our communities.
