Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Scrum Alliance

Sustainability is at the forefront of Scrum Alliance initiatives and we take eco-conscious steps whenever possible. As a remote organization, one of the best ways that we can support sustainability efforts is during our in-person event gatherings with the Scrum Alliance community. Specific actions that we take at each event include eliminating the use of disposable flatware and paper-printed programs, providing on-site recycling options, providing reusable water bottles to attendees, and promoting public transportation/ride-sharing with co-workers whenever possible. Scrum Alliance has also reduced its number of events each year in the place of hosting hybrid events as a further demonstration of its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.

Environmental Sustainability

Scrum Alliance donated 47 trees in honor of Earth Day this year and gave employees time off on Earth Day to enjoy nature whether that be working in their gardens, going on a walk, or giving back to the community in some way.

Community Impact and Philanthropy

Scrum Alliance offers employees paid time off to volunteer in their local communities each year. Scrum Alliance engaged in philanthropic efforts where possible, most recently:
-Donating to Stop Soldier Suicide and matching team member donations to Wounded Warrior Project and Operation Gratitude in honor of Earth Day
-Donating computer equipment to schools in the Denver area
