With a surprise match from Sprout, we’re doubling those donations for a total of more than $42,000, and we’re thrilled to end our 2018 community engagement initiatives with this collaborative, all-company effort. We’re so proud of Team Sprout for investing their time, money and compassion in causes we care about-and I’m thrilled to share that in total, our team raised $21,006 for these incredible organizations! Silent auction items included everything from a week of on-demand LaCroix delivery at your desk, to the creation of a custom theme song for your pet (one of the most popular items!), to a soothing recording of “Good Night Moon” by one of our in-house voiceover artists. Throughout the week, we participated in a variety of fundraising activities including a food drive donation day, bake sale, a lunch buy-back, a Sprout swag day and a silent auction-which is where our team’s creativity really emerged. For Philanthropy Week, every team member had the option to join a team supporting one of 13 different nonprofit organizations, with causes ranging from mental health to immigration and criminal justice reform to increasing opportunities for women of color to pursue careers in STEM. This year, an amazing group of team members based in both our Seattle and Chicago offices re-envisioned this tradition to expand participation across our offices and remote team.Īt Sprout, we love a little friendly competition-especially when it’s for a great cause (or 13 great causes, in this case).
Philanthropy Week, a five-day event where we raised money for more than a dozen nonprofits, actually started in our Seattle office and has been a long-standing tradition for the Simply Measured team that joined Sprout in late 2017. So this holiday season, we introduced a new tradition to our entire team: Philanthropy Week! With our global growth over the past year, we wanted to expand our usual winter initiatives to support a variety of nonprofits, engage our team and give back to a broader range of community efforts. At Sprout, our company values include championing diversity, equity and inclusion, and an important piece of this is using our resources and our privilege to support the communities where we live and work.
Every year, our team comes together around the winter holidays to support causes near and dear to our hearts.
