Community Impact
We look to leverage our scale for good and use our ability to innovate quickly to strengthen communities around the world where our employees live and work. We address immediate needs—such as reducing family hunger and homelessness and serving communities in need following natural disasters. The common thread through all of our work is a focus on ensuring that underserved and underrepresented youth in India have an opportunity to thrive.
