Partnering with Room to Read
Atlassian Foundation has partnered with Room to Read for over a decade, in support of creating a world free from illiteracy and gender inequality.
More than a third of Atlassian employees support Room to Read through our Dollars-A-Day giving program - helping to fund almost 32,000 years of girls' education. Hundreds of Atlassian employees also enjoyed a ‘virtual trek’ to Cambodia to learn more about Room to Read in 2022.
Building a Pledge 1% community
Atlassian co-founded the global Pledge 1% movement in 2014 to inspire businesses to bake social impact into their DNA. Since then, over 17,000 members in 100 countries have used Pledge 1%'s flexible framework to ignite USD$2 billion in new philanthropy. They collaborate and share useful, publicly-available resources in the Pledge 1% community.
Helping Seabin fill global data gaps to save our oceans
The Seabin Project provides innovative, data driven, tangible solutions to both reduce plastic in our waterways and support new policy and legislation on land.
Atlassian employees helped Seabin set up a system using Jira Service Management to manage its field assets that are collecting microplastics, microfibres and more from waterways in global cities.
The adoption of Jira by Seabin will assist their scaling plan of 100 smarter cities by 2050.
