Month of Giving

Avaya’s Month of Giving brings out the best in our Avayans. Every October since 2015, we hold our Month of Giving—a spirited campaign that brings together employees, partners, suppliers and customers from around the globe. People devote time, money, and energy to support causes that are near and dear to their hearts. Over the years, we’ve logged thousands of volunteer hours and raised more than $1.3 million to support various charities worldwide.

Save the Children.

Avaya has a long-standing partnership with Save the Children, a leading international humanitarian aid organization dedicated to giving children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn, and protection from harm. Since 2015, Avaya has donated more than $450,000 to Save the Children through the Avaya Matching Fund, silent auctions, and employee-driven fundraising. They have helped fund community construction of several classrooms, offices, and related structures in Mozambique, Uganda, Afghanistan, and Vietnam.

Charitable donations and sponsorships.

Avaya donates money and product (as requested by the sales and marketing teams) to organizations that focus on healthcare and education. Processes are in place to vet the organizations we sponsor to ensure they meet our standards and expectations as well to ensure appropriate internal approvals. In FY2021, we donated more than $225,000 through sponsorships and benefitted several community organizations with in-kind donations of chairs, tables, and other workplace assets.

Vetting includes ensuring that the charitable organization is:

  • Nonpartisan and adheres to fundamental human rights principles
  • Not controlled by government officials
  • Nondiscriminatory
  • Not-for-profit
  • Reputable
