Our Commitment to Volunteering, Partnerships and Donations
Originally published in the Clarivate Annual Sustainability Report
“Giving back is not only a way to support your community and make a difference, it also helps us empathize with others, inspires greater happiness and helps us continue to grow and evolve as a society. I am humbled and excited for the ongoing opportunity to help others achieve a better life through the Clarivate Volunteer Network. “
Sònia Barrios Millan, Clarivate Volunteer Network Global Lead
Many of our colleagues are very generous and community oriented – consistently carving out time in their busy schedules to volunteer and give back. But imagine what we could achieve if we banded together and mobilized? We believe we can create a larger, more dynamic force for good by organizing and promoting campaigns and initiatives to help making the world a better place. We created the Clarivate Volunteer Network to promote the benefits of volunteering and help us better connect globally and locally with our customers, communities and colleagues.
