Our Community
Core Values
Involvement
At Vikus Water our Core Values are more than just words. One of our favorite ways to demonstrate our values is by giving back through organizations which will improve the lives of others. These are just a few examples of how we are expressing our passion for our community:
Rotary Club of
The Villages
Rotary is the world's premier international humanitarian service organization. A diverse global network of community, business, and professional leaders who address relevant social causes to change lives and build goodwill and peace at home and abroad. Chartered in 1996, the Rotary Club of The Villages has over 100 members from all professions. Annual fundraisers raise $150,000 for many local charities. 100% of all contributions and proceeds from fundraisers go towards work in the community, state, and around the world.
Compassion International is the world’s leading authority on holistic child development through sponsorship. In 1952, Reverend Everett Swanson vowed to find a way to help the children orphaned by the Korean War. Today, Compassion is a global ministry that serves more than 2 million babies, children and young adults by partnering with more than 8,000 churches in 25 countries to help break the cycle of poverty.
Concerns of Police Survivors (COPS) is a 501c3 charity with over 47,000 volunteer members and 50 chapters throughout the country. The Central Florida COPS Chapter, is a fully volunteer based organization developed by local survivors. Our chapter covers all law enforcement agencies and the families of fallen heroes who reside within Central Florida counties. The love and support from our community continues to shine a light in the darkness and ensures our heroes will never be forgotten.
M. Yates Engineering Scholarship
The M. Yates Engineering Scholarship is presented annually by Vikus Water to a senior at The Villages Charter School desiring to pursue a degree in engineering or related technical field. As we strongly believe, one’s life and career should be characterized by excellence, integrity, professionalism, encouragement, and generosity. We should seek not so much to be served, but to serve. The selected scholarship recipient is someone who has shown excellence in the classroom and has also displayed a heart for service to others.
Lifewater International is a non-profit Christian water development organization serving the world’s rural poor through integrated water, sanitation, and hygiene programs. In 40 years, Lifewater has served 2.5 million people in 40 countries.
Empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. We accomplish this by ensuring that veterans and their families can access the full range of benefits available to them; fighting for the interests of America's injured heroes and educating the public about the great sacrifices and needs of veterans transitioning back to civilian life.
