Caring for Our Communities

Every day, Wabtec works to make the world a little bit better. It’s been our goal – and part of our business – for over 150 years. Led by the Wabtec Foundation, our philanthropic arm, we commit to improving the health, safety, and viability of our communities and addressing critical needs with meaningful, sustainable impact. We donate to communities where we operate in an effort to support local communities, address humanitarian crises, and provide disaster relief.

In 2022, our communities faced devastating natural disasters and the lingering impacts of multiple crises. Our Caring for our Communities program donated a total of $580,000 to over 170 recipients to positively impact our communities around the world.

Here are a few examples of how Wabtec stepped up to support our communities over the past year.
