Globally, we contribute volunteer time, funds, and supplies for causes that include environmental improvement, health and medical conditions, food and hunger programs, research and education initiatives, as well as emergency and disaster relief agencies. We provide financial and in-kind support to nonprofit organizations that support our volunteerism and pro bono efforts. In 2021, our employees dedicated thousands of hours to these organizations, reaching over 4,000 people through volunteering, fundraising and collecting goods through charitable drives.
Some recent examples of our efforts include:
Hunger alleviation
Partnering with local organizations such as Food Bank for New York City, Capital Area Food Bank, Houston Food Bank, First Love Foundation and Emirates Red Crescent, among others, our employees have collected food, raised money and distributed meals to those facing food insecurity.
Supporting quality education
Through education partnerships in New York, London, Washington D.C. and Singapore, we’ve supported quality education through volunteer mentoring, job shadowing, skills workshops, school supply drives and career days.
Providing access to clean water and sanitation
Working with Wine to Water, we’ve connected with people in some of the hardest-to-reach places on the planet to help supply direct access to clean water through the Filter Build project. Additionally, we’ve worked with Clean the World, distributing thousands of hygiene kits to those who need them.
Addressing poverty needs and reducing inequalities
Through our work with nonprofit organizations, we’ve made significant strides in addressing poverty through the collection of goods, providing coats during the winter, professional clothes for interviews, holiday gifts, and necessities such as socks, healthy snacks and hygiene supplies. Our volunteer initiatives—which include interview preparation, financial literacy workshops, and voter information—seek to eliminate the inequalities that underserved communities often face.
Promoting good health
Participating in local walks, runs and cycling events, our employees are active in promoting good health habits across the globe. We’ve raised money for vital causes that bolster cancer research, assisted survivors of domestic violence, provide disability services and promote racial justice. We also understand the need for quality mental health. To address this growing issue, we’ve supported the isolated and elderly through our telephone befriending program.
