Kristina Frost reflects on the holiday season as an opportunity to embrace a culture of giving, inspired by her childhood experiences of family gatherings and gift exchanges. As an adult, she finds joy in giving thoughtful presents and emphasizes the importance of extending generosity beyond one's immediate circle to those less fortunate. At Elastic, she participates in philanthropic initiatives supporting underserved communities, particularly in STEM education and food security. The company's global efforts include raising substantial funds for charities and organizing local events to provide gifts and essentials to children in need.
