In this issue of The Good Stuff, Graybar is donating to disaster relief in its hometown of St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, MO., June 26, 2025 – Graybar, a leading distributor of electrical, industrial, automation and connectivity products and provider of related supply chain management and logistics services, today announced it will make a $400,000 contribution to disaster relief following the devastating tornado that swept through St. Louis in May.
The May 16 tornado caused widespread damage in parts of St. Louis, displacing families and disrupting the lives of thousands in the community. Graybar’s contribution will support immediate needs and long-term recovery for residents affected by the disaster.
Graybar’s donation will be distributed among several local organizations that provide essential services such as food, shelter, access to medical care, and cleanup assistance. Graybar is also coordinating donations of materials and services from other companies, including 3M Company and Milwaukee Tool, which provided work gloves, protective eyewear, hard hats, and other critical supplies for the relief efforts.
“Graybar is proud to call St. Louis home, and our hearts go out to our neighbors who have been impacted by this storm,” said Chairman, President and CEO Kathy Mazzarella. “While the damage is significant, we know our community is resilient, and we will get through this together. We hope our contribution helps St. Louis recover, rebuild and emerge even stronger for the future.”
