Guiding Principles
We honor the philanthropic spirit initiated by Adobe founders John Warnock and Chuck Geschke, and have created the Adobe Foundation to further that legacy.
We establish respectful and mutually beneficial partnerships with grantees, community partners, employees, the public, government, business partners, and our colleagues to achieve our goals.
We are committed to providing access to underserved communities, giving them the opportunity to develop 21st century skills.
We align our giving in a way that leverages our financial, technological and human resources to support communities where Adobe has employees, focusing on issues including homelessness, hunger, arts/culture, environment, and access to technology for people with disabilities.
