Business Wire
Arrow Electronics released its annual Corporate Social
Responsibility & Sustainability Report, an overview of the
company’s 2018 social, environmental and economic impacts. The
company expanded its reach last year, working with organizations
that supported nearly 14.7 million people on six continents, a 77
percent increase from 2017.
Highlights of Arrow’s CSR’s activities in 2018 include:
- The Arrow SAM Car project continued to break barriers for the
disabled community. In 2018, disabled representatives from the U.S.
Armed Forces drove the car, taking turns cruising past the
monuments of Washington D.C., along the Virginia and New Jersey
shorelines and on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina.
- Arrow worked with nonprofit We Care Solar to create a lower
cost, more powerful design of the We Care Solar Suitcase, which
should improve the health outcomes of mothers and babies in
developing nations by providing light and critical monitors to
clinics that otherwise operate in darkness.
- Arrow and nonprofit Close The Gap launched the third DigiTruck,
a mobile, solar-powered classroom and enterprise incubator serving
Nairobi, Mombasa and surrounding counties.
- Arrow employees participated in 747 events supporting 165
charities and racked up nearly 6,000 volunteer hours.
Arrow’s CSR program provides support through technical
expertise, employee volunteerism and partner resources, in addition
to making financial contributions to organizations that share the
company’s values and vision.
