Community impact in the first half of 2026
Community impact is core to being a Dropbox employee.
In the first half of 2026, Dropbox employees around the world came together to support causes and communities through volunteering, skills-based giving, and nonprofit partnerships—demonstrating how connection and care extend beyond our day-to-day work.
A major part of that effort took place on Impact Day, our biannual companywide day of service dedicated to giving back locally while building connection globally. This year, Dropbox employees participated in volunteer events virtually and in 16 cities worldwide, totaling over 700 hours of service.
Some highlights from around the world:
- Asia: In Sydney, employees volunteered with Greyhound Rescue NSW, helping care for rescue greyhounds and maintain the shelter through cleaning, painting, gardening, and other hands-on projects. Employees from Singapore and Japan gathered virtually to design scratch cards for young coders, creating learning tools to inspire the next generation of technology creators.
- Europe: In Dublin, members of our Pridebox Employee Resource Group (ERG) volunteered with Outhouse, an LGBTQ+ community center, helping organize donated books for a library that benefits more than 50,000 people each year.
- North America: In Toronto, employees created comfort kits for children undergoing treatment through the Ronald McDonald House. In San Francisco, members of our TODOS ERG partnered with Enterprise for Youth to host a Spanish-language career panel for high school students, sharing career advice, personal experiences, and encouragement for the future.
Volunteerism doesn’t just happen on Impact Day; it also happens in our local neighborhoods and during team gatherings. Teams are encouraged to add a volunteer activity to the agenda at their quarterly offsite, giving back to the community they’ve traveled to strengthen team connection and bonding. Leaders from our global ERG community recently had the opportunity to assemble kits for entrepreneurs from underserved communities while attending an offsite in Atlanta, Georgia.
These moments reflect the power of our employee communities where people across teams, regions, and backgrounds can come together intentionally to make a meaningful difference.
Impact at Dropbox continues year-round through the Dropbox Foundation, which recently welcomed Tech to the Rescue and the Helen Bamber Foundation as new nonprofit partners. These organizations are advancing human rights, strengthening communities, and helping vulnerable populations access critical support and technology resources. Through these partnerships, employees have opportunities to contribute through skills-based volunteering projects that create long-term impact.
At Dropbox, we believe in owning your impact—not only through the products we build, but through the communities we live in and help support.
