Pfizer Launches 175 Days of Good—A Global Commitment to Community Volunteerism
Building on Pfizer’s 175-year legacy to be a force for good in the world, we launched 175 Days of Good—a global call to action inspiring and celebrating colleague volunteerism and Pfizer’s collective commitment to do good where we work, live—and beyond.
From June 13 to International Volunteer Day on December 5, 2024, Pfizer colleagues around the world hosted and joined volunteer events as individuals, sites, and teams.
Together, we made a big impact:
In addition, Pfizer colleagues outside the U.S. who volunteered with a charitable cause could apply for the Force for Good Awards. 20 teams were randomly selected, awarding the charity they volunteered with a grant of $17,500 each from The Pfizer Foundation*—a total impact of $350,000 in donations to support charitable causes worldwide.
Participating in events like this makes us feel really great. 175 Days of Good allows us to demonstrate our purpose of fulfilling unmet needs, creating positive impact in society and most importantly, bringing breakthroughs that change patients’ lives.
Inspiring volunteerism with a Day of Good launch
Pfizer’s New York Headquarters organized a volunteer celebration with a ‘Day of Good’ on July 16, 2024, hosting in-person and virtual volunteer events with Cheeriodicals, Rise Against Hunger, New York Botanical Gardens, Hudson Guild, Save the Children, and American Red Cross.
More than 900 Pfizer colleagues took collective community action—packing over 50,000 meals for the hungry, planting gardens, and assembling 500 “Cheer Kits” for children across New York City.
I joined Pfizer colleagues for a volunteer event with Cheeriodicals, where we packed Cheer Kits for children at NYU Children's Hospital and Mt. Sinai Children’s Hospital. I realized that while it may be 175 Days of Good, here at Pfizer we have the privilege and responsibility to impact lives 365 days a year.
Creating an impact around the world
Throughout the year, colleagues joined 175 Days of Good and made a positive impact in communities across 25+ countries, including the U.S., Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Indonesia, Kenya, Malaysia, Morocco, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and more.
We decided to launch 175 Days of Good because we wanted to shine a light on the deep commitment that Pfizer colleagues have to their local communities. So many colleagues volunteer every day to try to make the world a better place.
People have always been at the heart of everything we do at Pfizer, and for our colleagues, living our Purpose extends beyond the workplace—and beyond 175 Days of Good.
