Goal:

Improve over 100 million lives through targeted social impact programs

 
 
 

Roadmap to 2030

To begin working on our ten-year ambition, we will first:

01

Implement signature partnerships that can amplify our social impact 

02

Establish regional advisory councils to support community impact grants and volunteerism locally 

03

Implement a corporate grants management system and a global volunteer management system to quantify our collective impact and catalyze employee volunteerism

 
 
 

Wherever DuPont operates around the world, we want to enable people and communities to thrive. In 2019, we worked with an external consultant to hold over 60 internal interviews with DuPont business presidents, functional directors, site managers, and regional and country leaders to help inform a new global Community Impact strategy for the company. We wanted to create a Community Impact strategy that aligns with the company’s purpose and strategic goals, that also provides shared value to both the company and the communities.  

 
 
 

The result was a strategy that provides guidance for our community giving and initiatives, that is still flexible enough for our global sites to tailor to meet their specific community needs. Through our people, products, and partnerships, we focus on supporting and furthering Community Impact initiatives in three key areas of focus that are core to DuPont: 

Basics to Thrive


empowering communities by increasing access to critical needs such as water, shelter, nutrition, and economic opportunity. 

STEM Education


increasing access to STEM education for all, and helping to build a talent pipeline for the future

Innovations for Good


focusing our science and innovations on megatrends that can improve people’s lives and create scalable impact in communities around the globe
