Good for Communities

We empower employees to be a force for good in the communities we call home—locally and globally.

Our Good for Communities strategic driver is informed by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Enhancing Communities

We empower employees to be a force for good in the communities we call home—locally and globally.

We believe meaningful change starts with empowered individuals. That’s why we actively encourage our employees to lend their time, talents, and voices to drive impact in their local communities. Creating stronger, more resilient communities takes all of us—so we provide opportunities for every employee to engage in service, amplify youth potential, and create positive change through the work of Fossil Foundation.
