The vision of the
Salesforce.com Foundation is to use salesforce.com's people, technology, and
relationships to improve our communities, inspire youth to be more successful, support the world
during times of extreme need, and promote compassionate capitalism.
Our mission is to remain the leader in pioneering, evangelizing, and implementing the 1%
model and using this model as a means to improve the lives of people around the world. This is the
power of us.
The Salesforce.com Foundation harnesses the power of product and people to improve the lives
of those in need. Using a unique 1/1/1/1 model—
1% time,
1%
equity,
1%
product and now
1 with the
Earth—the Foundation reaches out to the community and increases the effectiveness of nonprofit
organizations so they can better achieve their goals. We call this the Power of Us.
We concentrate on the use of technology, specifically as it relates to organizations with
youth development programs. We have created technology centers around the world that help kids in
technology-bereft urban and rural areas hope for and create a better future for themselves. Our
employees give freely of their time and expertise, feeding the homeless, tutoring kids, improving
nonprofit spaces, and offering hundreds of helping hands when the world is faced with devastating
natural disasters. And we give a financial leg up to nonprofits—both large and small—that are in
need.
Working on an international level, the Foundation has offices in San Francisco, New York,
London, Dublin, Singapore and Tokyo.
Our programs—and especially our people—are proof that real social change is very much within
our reach.
“The value of a corporation should be fully distributed not only to its leadership, but also
to the communities in which it operates and the global community as a whole.”
