Summary

PagerDuty is dedicated to empowering action and has expanded its mission to include philanthropic efforts through PagerDuty.org, which supports nonprofit partners and mission-driven customers. By taking the Pledge 1% in 2017, the company committed resources such as product, employee time, and equity to enhance the work of nonprofits, leading to the creation of the PagerDuty.org Fund focused on Time-Sensitive Global Health. This initiative has supported organizations like Medic Mobile and VillageReach, which aim to improve healthcare delivery in underserved areas. On #GivingTuesday, PagerDuty donated $25,000 to support community health workers and vaccine distribution, and launched an internal giving campaign allowing employees to contribute to these or other causes. Both Medic Mobile and VillageReach focus on utilizing technology and innovative approaches to improve health systems and ensure equitable care, with tangible impacts such as training health workers and providing essential medical resources.
