SmartBear Gives Back

SmartBear Gives Back is SmartBear’s global philanthropy initiative.

Through annual volunteering engagements with organizations as diverse as Child Rights and You (CRY) in India, the Somerville Homeless Coalition in Massachusetts, and Bath City Farm in the U.K., our employees get involved in their local communities with organizations that they care about.

Through our Company Match program, employees can further support causes that mean the most to them personally.

Our annual observances for issues like Breast Cancer Awareness and Men’s Health let our teams raise SmartBear-funded donations through participation in global events as well.

At many of our locations, SmartBear sends teams to annual charity runs or competitions where they represent the company by getting out and getting some exercise at the same time.

In Somerville, we hold an annual 3k run to benefit the Pan Mass Challenge and Dana Farber Cancer research – a cause that was close to our late CEO, Justin Teague.

When we operate from a foundation of engagement, inclusion and opportunity, we not only hold ourselves accountable, we’re better able to transform big ideas into sustainable realities. And that lets us create lasting change in our business and communities.

Because at the end of the day, we’re here to make the world a more quality place – for everyone.

Sustainability

We see sustainability, in the broadest sense, as an ethical and smart approach to business.

In 2021, SmartBear signed the Vista Climate Agreement, committing to measuring, offsetting, and setting reduction targets each year since.

Having conducted five carbon surveys now, SmartBear continues to follow science-based guidance for reduction target setting and our decarbonization strategy.

We work with vetted carbon capture and avoidance projects to support carbon offsets alongside our reduction strategy, but never as a replacement for reduction.

We removed single-use plastics from our global offices, avoiding the use of hundreds of thousands of pieces per year.  With wins like switching to 100% renewable energy at our Somerville HQ in 2023, we continue to look for efficiencies across our global operations.
