Volunteerism
GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY
Baxter is passionate about giving back to the community. Across the globe, employees come together to dedicate time and effort to worthy causes. In 2017, Baxter employees performed 57,000 hours of volunteer work and participated in 1,200 events across 38 countries. Every year, employees are encouraged to participate in Baxter’s Global Service Program to advance our culture of volunteerism and support of the community.
Employee involvement takes many forms, such as volunteering at a local school or a blood drive, serving at a hospital or food pantry, building homes for needy families, participating in community park clean-up days, or joining a local nonprofit board or committee. Employees at each facility select volunteer activities and organizations to support, as they are best able to determine the most relevant and impactful projects.
