Programs designed to make an impact

DigitalOcean's Social Impact programs are based on our company mission and values.

DO for Nonprofits & Social Enterprises

Our inaugural social impact program, Hollie's Hub for Good, provides builders with DigitalOcean credits to enable the growth of their programs. Hollie's Hub for Good was created by Hollie Haggans, DigitalOcean's 150th employee, who tragically passed away in 2020. We're proud to remember Hollie, and her legacy will always live on through our new DO for Nonprofits program.

DigitalOcean employees come together to give back to communities around the world.
Our inaugural Day of Service brought together teams virtually and in-person to bring our values to life. Sharks around the world donated their time and talent to non-profit organizations doing important work in our communities. We connected with colleagues outside of the traditional workday and united through a common goal of giving back.

DigitalOcean offered us exactly what we needed. As a new non-profit, we needed infrastructure, and also benefited from DO Impact hosting credits and got help building our solution from DigitalOcean's Ambassador Program.
