From the very beginning, ITServe’s mission has been to empower local communities through a wide range of initiatives. ITServe believes in the transformative power of STEM scholarships, STEM training, and STEM internships, which enable individuals to reach their full potential and contribute to a thriving society. By advocating for these educational opportunities, CSR aims to bridge the gap and provide equal access to quality education.
ITServe CSR is committed to giving back to our local communities through various educational, empowering, and charitable programs. Since ITServe’s inception in 2010, the CSR team has embarked on a remarkable journey in the realm of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Starting with small steps, it has made a significant impact by investing 1.5 million Dollars in STEM activities and various welfare programs. In addition to the financial contributions, ITServe members have dedicated thousands of hours of collective efforts to serving local communities.
Goel acknowledges the many challenges he and his Team face. “ITServe Alliance members are passionate about the well-being of society just as they have been about their businesses but restricted by 24 hours a day. Often, this mission to give back is delayed or takes a backseat as we are juggling multiple duties at work and with family. Another challenge is identifying the right organizations, where ITServe Alliance CSR can make a contribution and have the maximum impact.”
Founded in 2010, ITServe Alliance is the largest association of Information Technology Services Organizations functioning across the United States. Established to be the collective voice of all Information Technology companies with similar interests in the United States, ITServe Alliance has evolved as a resourceful and respected platform to collaborate and initiate measures in the direction of protecting common interests and ensuring collective success.
