The Annual Day of Service represents Sensata Technologies’
efforts to be a neighbor of choice and its tradition of giving back
to communities for most of its 100+ year history. The company
encourages employee-led activities, including volunteering and
other forms of civic involvement, as part of its sustainability
commitment to positively impact communities where it operates.
U.S.-based Sensata employees receive one paid day every year to
volunteer with community organizations where employees live or
work.
Sensata’s volunteering program, also known as “Sensata Serves,”
continues to grow each year. This year, the program supported 34
projects at 26 nonprofit organizations, including six new
charities. The volunteering program leverages some of the
relationships that Sensata Technologies Foundation, the company’s
philanthropic arm, has with nonprofits in communities across the
U.S. to create service projects.
Employees chose from a wide variety of in-person and virtual
projects offering opportunities for meaningful engagement – from
creating a meditation garden, recording children’s audio books and
restoring facilities for youth summer programs to springtime
cleanup and food packing. Additionally, projects such as building
an on-site water wall and preparing STEM kits for a science museum
engaged employees interested in applying their technical skills
toward serving a cause.
“Volunteering is important to me for many reasons, but the most
basic reason is to have the opportunity to give back to nonprofits
that do so much in support of our communities,” said Chris Kade,
who led a team project in which volunteers restored facility areas
such as chicken enclosures and garden beds at The Historic
Metcalf-Franklin Farm in Cumberland, RI. “I am always amazed at
just how much positive change can happen when motivated people work
together for common good.”
The event brought participation to many Sensata locations where
employees are based, including CA, ID, IL, MA, MI, MN and RI.
“Our Annual Day of Service is one of the many initiatives that
reflect our commitment to building a purpose-driven organization
and being a neighbor of choice. Our employees embody this
commitment by choosing to volunteer for causes they care about,”
said Sensata Technologies CEO and President, Jeff Cote. “The
Day of Service is not just about delivering community impact – it’s
also about empowering our workforce through the act of giving back.
Ultimately, when our people and our communities are strong, it
contributes to our strength as an organization, and we are
incredibly proud of the role our employees are playing in driving
sustainable change.”
