Living Our Values
We are of the strong belief that success is more than what the balance sheet shows. It’s not what we do, but how we do it, that defines our success. We are a values-driven organization and we have incorporated these values into every aspect of how we conduct our business.
To further pursue our long-standing commitment to being good corporate citizens, the company has committed resources to execute an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiative. As in every part of our business, our ESG initiative is being guided by our values, a thoughtful strategy, and authentic action. You can learn more about our ESG initiative here.
Being a good corporate citizen is systemic; it comes from top-down and bottom-up, and emanates from every segment, division and department in the company. Our efforts are ongoing, we never think we’ve arrived at an endpoint. We know we always have opportunity to improve.
Community Involvement & Philanthropy
A legacy of giving and service
For more than four decades, our Company has given back to our communities by contributing to a myriad of non-profit organizations and programs. The WD-40 Company Memory Making Fund was established as a means for WD-40 Company’s employee-led Community Involvement Committee to fulfill our corporate giving mission.
We are committed to transformational philanthropy. This means we take a systematic, collaborative approach to grant making with an eye toward long-term change. We launched our current grant making program in 2016 and have committed nearly $1.5 million over the last seven years to our partner non-profit organizations. In addition to general corporate giving, we match employee charitable contributions (U.S. only), and often provide financial support globally in times of humanitarian crisis.
Monetary donations are only part of our commitment to our communities. Our tribemates have personally committed their time to giving back by volunteering. Paying it forward in support of something bigger than ourselves and our communities energizes our tribe.
Charitable Priorities
In 2023, we will launch a new grantmaking program. We are committed to transformational philanthropy, which means we take a systematic, collaborative approach to grantmaking with an eye toward long-term change.
Our current grant cycle is now closed. Future grant opportunities, including grant guidelines, will be posted on this webpage.
