Thriving communities

Supporting healthy communities

Our value “Do the Right Thing” has grounded and guided us through the decades. One way this comes to life is through our work to support communities, particularly when they need it most. In fiscal year 2024, we provided cash grants, U.S. product donations and cash for cause marketing totaling over $48 million to support public health and the communities where our employees live and work.

The Clorox Company Foundation

The Clorox Company Foundation’s mission is to foster healthy and inclusive communities so people can be well and thrive. Its signature theme focuses on health security, based on the belief that health and wellness is a basic human right. Since its inception, the foundation has awarded cash grants totaling nearly $145 million to nonprofit organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area and other communities in which the company operates.

Employee volunteerism and workplace giving

Clorox employees are at the heart of our philanthropy. They generously contribute their time, money and passion to causes important to them — and Clorox rewards employees’ efforts by matching their donations and contributing cash to organizations where they volunteer.

In calendar year 2023, employees donated nearly 73,000 hours of their time to hundreds of local nonprofits, a financial equivalent of $2.4 million.*

The fair market value of our U.S. donations alone amounted to over $40 million in fiscal year 2024.^†

Cause marketing partnerships

Through cause marketing campaigns, we make cash and product donations to nonprofit organizations in support of causes that are consistent with our brands’ purposes. During fiscal year 2024, we made about $450,000 in cash donations to support such initiatives.

^{* Calculated on a calendar year basis and based on an annual employee volunteer survey conducted in January 2024, value is the financial equivalent of number of logged volunteer hours multiplied by the value of volunteer time in current year, determined by IndependentSector.org.}

^{† U.S. product donations refer to those donations used to aid in disaster relief or to support schools, food banks and other nonprofit organizations. The value is derived from the current-year fair market value of the products donated. U.S. product donations include donations made by the company’s U.S. divisions and are for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.}

Thriving communities

We want everyone to have the opportunity to be the best version of themselves. For that to happen, we need to be surrounded by colleagues who value us, neighbors who care about us, and institutions that see and respect us. That’s why we’re focused on inclusion and diversity, supporting our communities and responsible sourcing. Although we’re making progress, there’s always more work to do. And that’s okay, because a safer, better world for everybody is always worth fighting for.
