Go Do Good

Pure Good Foundation was started by a small group of Pure Storage employees who saw a need in the community and knew they could make a difference. A few months before going public, Pure employees approved and funded the creation of Pure Good by donating stock shares. We’re proud to be an employee-seeded foundation and work each day to honor their generosity.

Today, the Foundation divides its efforts across three areas:

Puritan Philanthropy – Focused on our core value of teamwork and our corporate culture of doing good, we offer employees three ways to deepen their engagement with local causes dear to their hearts. Our Employee Volunteer Program includes Global Interest Grants to promote team building through charity, the Community Volunteer program to amplify individual philanthropic work with donations, and the Board Member program to support those non-profits our employees invest the most time into.

Environment – Pure’s products have always had a positive net effect for our customers and the planet. From our Evergreen program to eliminating plastic in our offices, we continually analyse how we can do more to ensure we’re decreasing our environmental footprint. We amplify those efforts by investing in non-profits working on these issues.

Workforce Development – The world is becoming increasingly technological and many individuals looking for jobs find themselves lacking the training necessary to compete in today’s job market. Pure Good pairs Pure Storage employees with workforce development organisations that provide continuing education, professional development, and entry-level jobs for people from historically disadvantaged populations.
