As a global company, our community truly has no borders, so when it comes to getting involved, we try to give equitably among the myriad of worthy causes. We participate in various types of philanthropic work each year. We donate company funds and match the donations of our employees to groups that support wildlife preservation, supplies for refugees, STEM education for students, childhood cancer research and more. We are constantly looking for opportunities to support our local community and connect with the larger life science community.
Science for a Better World
This year, we offered our own NIL grant of $50,000 to be divided among 10 promising junior or senior undergraduate researchers ($5,000 each). Our team believes that supporting people in entering STEM fields is crucial to the future of innovative scientific research. We make it a point to mentor and support individuals that are early in their education and career. Meet the 10 students awarded with the Scientist.com STEM Research NIL Award and Scholarship for the Spring semester of 2023.

During September 2022, we drove a social media campaign that raised funds and awareness for multiple Childhood Cancer Organizations. Through this initiative, we pledged to donate $1 for every engagement we received across our social media platforms.

Amidst the military strikes against Ukrainian civilians, we started an initiative to raise money and respond to the large and growing need for food, clothing and other essentials for the Ukrainian refugees. Scientist.com doubled the amount donated by employees, family and friends.
Touch a Truck Program
The Touch a Truck fundraiser is a fun and unique event for kids featuring a wide variety of vehicles, trucks & equipment for the children to touch & feel. This event raises money for childhood cancer research. Scientist.com was proud to sponsor this special day in 2018.
