Here to Serve

We take great pride in serving our employees by giving them tools to help them achieve their goals, and providing them with recognition along the way. Education is an important component of this initiative. We offer leadership and business training through Tacala Leadership University (TLU), company funded GED certification and the opportunity to apply for college and vocational school scholarships.

Tacala Charities
Employee Assistance Program

To further reinforce our community of caring, we wanted to provide a way to assist employees experiencing a crisis or hardship situation. The Tacala Charities Star Fund was established to provide financial assistance to Tacala employees who’ve experienced a hardship due to events beyond their control, including disasters, extended illnesses or injuries, and other special situations involving significant personal hardships. The Star Fund’s grants can help pay for essential immediate living expenses, such as housing, utilities, food, clothing and other basic needs. The Star Fund relies on support from both the sponsoring organization, Tacala, and individual donations made by Tacala partners, employees and the general public. Every donation helps provide maximum grant assistance to those in need. Since The Star Fund is a 501c3 charity, the operations are governed by rules established by the IRS that may, in some cases, limit its availability to address certain situations.

Team Tacala Scholarships

In 2014, Tacala initiated the Team Tacala Scholarship fund to provide team members who were graduating High School or enrolled in college with access to scholarship support removing a financial barrier to post-secondary education. Funded by the company as well as proceeds from the Team Tacala Scholarships Golf Experience, Team Tacala Charities has awarded over 450 scholarships.

We are proud to support and encourage the future thinkers, doers and leaders of our country.
