Procore Joins the Pledge 1% Movement in Support of Corporate Philanthropy
Procore’s clients are making a physical mark on the world - building our community’s schools, homes, hospitals, airports, and more. We're honored to create products for the people in construction and we are continuously inspired by our users to help improve the industry we serve and the communities we call home.
Procore drives social impact through two company initiatives: Procore.org and Procore’s employee volunteer program. These initiatives have been growing and we wanted to take the next step in our commitment to corporate philanthropy. By partnering with Pledge 1%, a global movement of organizations dedicated to making giving back a fundamental piece of business, we’re formalizing Procore’s dedication to social impact through our product and time.
At Procore, more than one percent of our total active client accounts are nonprofit or educational organizations that receive Procore's software, implementation, and support at no charge. In addition, Procore employees spend at least one percent of their annual working hours engaging in community service.
Procore.org - Giving Our Product
Established in March 2017, Procore.org connects nonprofit builders, schools, associations, and local organizations with construction education, workforce development and training programs, and free access to the full Procore product suite in order to support building for charity and advancing the construction industry. Procore clients through Procore.org have a dedicated implementation manager and unlimited customer support, data storage, and user seats. What started as a grassroots effort by employees who wanted to do more for the industry is now an essential and strategic initiative towards realizing our vision of improving the lives of everyone in construction. Take a look at the 2018 progress of Procore.org.
Employee Volunteering - Giving Our Time
Our employee volunteer program, Procore Cares, is an employee-led initiative and is designed to connect employees with volunteer opportunities in their local areas. Procore’s volunteer policy encourages employees to take paid time off each year to participate in community service, and establishing a volunteer program was key in promoting this policy. As our team grows, so do our efforts, impact, and interests in how we volunteer our time. Whether it's hands-on, such as packaging food for those in need, or skills-based, like mentoring local engineering students, we’re always looking for opportunities to incorporate service into our work at Procore.
Giving back isn’t only the “right thing to do,” it’s an effort that impacts a company’s business, customers, employees, and communities. By sharing news of our partnership with Pledge 1%, we hope to inspire others to prioritize philanthropy in their businesses.
As our team continues to grow across the globe, we’re always looking for new team members to grow with us. If you’re interested in career opportunities with Procore, visit our jobs page.
