Do Good Week

For 177 years, Dun & Bradstreet has anchored its business and brand on one question: How can we help companies build valuable relationships? Helping us realize this mission are 5,000 team members across the globe who bring our corporate values of being data inspired, relentlessly curious and inherently generous to life every day.

Generosity is woven into the fabric of our company’s forward-leaning culture, extending to the communities where we work and live. Our flagship program, Do Good, encourages team members to give back to the community.

Do Good Week is a Global CSR initiative that encourages employees to take some time out and give back to the community. In a week-long celebration of humanity, D&B employees from across the globe participate in various activities. The zeal and enthusiasm with which the employees participate, shows how much they believe in the value of being “Inherently Generous”. From blood donation drives to spending quality time with underprivileged children, Do Good Week has several such activities where our employees wholeheartedly volunteer.
