Demonstrating that all 微米 team members are committed to innovation 和 outside-the-box thinking, 我们的 微米给 和 多样性、平等和包容 团队最近组织了一个众包挑战，让我们每个团队的成员 员工资源组 提名和选择最多两个机构获得总额为50美元的资助,来自美光基金会的000美元.
通过ERG拨款挑战, each ERG could support organizations whose work resonated most with its mission 和 the interests of its members. 所选组织的多样性反映了美光丰富所有人生活的意图.
“我们是一家致力于多元化的公司, equality 和 respect for all; 和 我们的 commitment extends beyond 微米’s walls,艾普莉·安曾说, 他是美光公司的首席人事官. “支持ing organizations 和 people in 我们的 local communities through philanthropic efforts is an important part of who we are as a 公司, 我为与我们的工程师们建立新的伙伴关系感到非常自豪.”
众包点燃了捐赠
The ERG Grants Challenge was inspired by the support 我们的 ERGs gave to organizations responding to community needs during the COVID-19 p和emic in 2020. 在大流行的头几个月, 我们的 ERGs organized matching-gift campaigns to support organizations responding to the p和emic in ways aligned to ERG interests. 我们希望继续这种类型的接触, 但是这种结构每年都可以重复.
所以大于12,700名ERG成员可以包容性地贡献和参与, Giving和DEI通过内部众包平台组织挑战. Members of nine of 微米’s 10 ERGs used the platform to nominate prospective nonprofits to support. 投票选出了最佳提名者, 和 ERG leaders evaluated each nomination 和 nonprofit for alignment to 微米给 pillars of giving 和 the ERG’s strategy, 以及这家非营利组织的工作对美光全球社区的潜在影响. ERG leaders worked with their executive sponsors to select the final one or two nonprofits to receive grants.
我们的第十次也是最新的ERG, 亚太岛民网络(AAPIN), 是在挑战赛期间成立的，当时团队无法使用众包, 成员们仍然抓住机会选择了两个非营利组织来支持.
最终，挑战赛选定了19家非营利组织获得资助. 美光基金会向这些组织共分发了50万美元. The impact will be global, 和 the nonprofits have been enthusiastic about the support received.
“我们非常感谢黑人女孩代码的慷慨支持, 尤其是当选择来自你的员工时,Black Girls CODE的肯尼亚·劳埃德说.
美光计划在2022年再次发起这一挑战.
