Creating positive outcomes in our communities.
Our employees go all-in to create change in the places where they live and work. We salute them — and we invest in their efforts by donating money to the causes they care about, combining their volunteer work with career development and more.
Community engagement.
We’re proud to support nonprofits that are creating hope and changing lives.
Supporting paediatric cancer victims and their families with St. Jude.
Restoring lost memories for Hurricane Harvey victims.
Helping find missing and exploited children with NCMEC.
Employee-led programmes.
Employee Community Fund (ECF)
By empowering employees to direct over $3M annually in Adobe funds toward the causes that matter to them, we help them to tackle the most pressing social and environmental issues right in their backyards.
Pro Bono initiative
When employees volunteer their technology, design and marketing skills to qualified nonprofits, they develop their expertise and leadership skills in a new environment. And great organisations benefit — our volunteer grants for pro bono totaled $1.13M in 2018 — while our employees also gain priceless leadership skills.
Matching grants
Our employees are a generous bunch. We match their donations of time and money to eligible nonprofits and schools. Last year, we were proud to give over $9M in matching grants.
Adobe Action Teams
When our employees join forces to take action in their local communities, they’re unstoppable. In 2018 alone, more than 400 employees led volunteering and fundraising efforts at 24 Adobe offices and mobilised employees to volunteer 120,640 hours of their time. We also match every 10 hours of our employees' volunteer time with a $250 charitable grant.
Board Service programme
We train employees to become effective members of nonprofit boards of directors. So far, 164 employees have served on boards and/or gone through the training programme, resulting in $460,000 in grants to 79 charities.
