Arity Mission, Purpose & Impact

Describe how Arity gives back to its communities. What impact do these efforts have on both those in need and employees themselves?

At Arity, giving back isn’t just an initiative — it’s part of who we are. Rooted in The Arity Way, our quarterly charity efforts allow employees to support causes that matter to them while fostering community and connection. These initiatives started with inspiration from our employees and have grown into a companywide commitment to making a meaningful impact. We support organizations through creative virtual fundraisers, donations and, when possible, in-person volunteering to make a hands-on difference. We have more opportunities coming to give back in 2025, and for each, employees have a say in what we will do to fundraise and volunteer.

What advice would you offer to leaders at other organizations interested in implementing more volunteer opportunities? Which efforts have had the biggest impact at Arity?

For organizations looking to implement more volunteer opportunities, start by listening to your employees. Align initiatives with their passions and provide flexible ways to engage, whether that’s through in-person events, virtual fundraisers or company-sponsored donation matching. At Arity, the biggest impact comes from creating engaging, inclusive events that allow employees to have fun while giving back. When employees feel connected to their work and their communities, they’re not just engaged — they’re inspired. 

Each quarter, one of our employees selects a charity partner that holds personal significance to them and aligns with one of our focus areas. For instance, those passionate about personal safety support organizations focused on physical and psychological safe environments, such as Goods for Good and Connections for Abused Women and their Children, an organization we proudly support every year. Meanwhile, others invested in acceptance support organizations facilitating inclusive environments that understand and embrace differences, such as Marwen and 12 Baskets Café. The key is to make social impact an integral part of company culture, allowing employees to take ownership and drive meaningful change.
