#TaniumGivesBack is an employee led program, focused on offering ways for employees to give back in service to their communities. In September, our US West team joined forces to spend a day giving back to four organizations of their choice across three states: California, Washington and Arizona.
Our local team spent a day volunteering at the Camp Pendleton Fisher House in California. The Fisher House provides a “home away from home” at no cost for families of patients admitted for medical care at the Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton or affiliated medical centers, and our cheerful team helped with general housekeeping chores and organizing goods drives.

In Oakland, our team brought good vibes and high energy for a day of volunteering in The Clean Lake Program.
The Clean Lake Program removes thousands of pounds of trash from Lake Merritt each month. Much of the work is done by volunteers. Below are a few of the surprising items our team pulled out of the lake!

In Seattle, our team worked with
Seattle Works and volunteered as helping hands in their thrift store! They organized, arranged and stocked merchandise, sorted and priced clothing and helped with displays and special projects. Through local action, Seattle Works helps community members plug into their city, develop leaders and partner with nonprofit organizations to build their capacity for good. The team was thrilled to support their cause!

In Arizona, our team joined forces with
St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance, volunteering to help pack emergency food boxes, do on-site food distribution and take part in their Kids Café. St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance exists to help feed hungry families throughout Phoenix and 9 Arizona counties. Volunteers, like our local Tanium team members, are essential to the non-profit organization, as they rely on the support from their community to enable them to distribute 250,000 meals a day, six days a week.
It is our dedication to our mission, our customers, and each other that makes our company special, and is the driving force behind our continued growth and success. We are proud to have a culture where employees tap into their positions of leadership and purpose to do good by our communities. #TaniumGivesBack adds greater purpose to our shared success as a team.
