Donating BlackBerry Products & Services
Donation of BlackBerry products and services is
known as an “in-kind” donation. While this may
seem like an easy donation to make, there are many
questions that must be considered. Accordingly,
the Corporate Citizenship team makes in-kind
investments based on a broader relationship with
a non-profit or charity. As with the other types of
donations, proper advance written pre-approval
is required.
Donating BlackBerry Corporate Assets
Corporate assets can be defined as anything
purchased or owned by BlackBerry. This includes
all IT assets (monitors, keyboards, laptops, printers,
scanners, etc.), facilities assets (desks, oce
furnishings, oce supplies, building space, etc.),
and excess inventory (BlackBerry-branded
promotional material, batteries, smartphone
cases, etc.).
All corporate assets must first be evaluated for
potential sale or other cost-recovery before an in-kind
donation proposal can be submitted to the Corporate
Citizenship team and Integrity & Compliance Oce
for written approval.
Q: I am a loyal supporter of several charitable causes. One such cause is not
one that BlackBerry ocially supports. Since BlackBerry is committed to
giving back to the communities we serve, is it okay for me to use company
time, and donate BlackBerry Smartphones and corporate resources in my
eorts for this organization?
A: While BlackBerry encourages you to support the charities of your choice, BlackBerry charitable
donations are facilitated with approved budget by the Corporate Citizenship team. In addition,
you may not use company time, assets and resources to further your personal interests without
prior written approval from your manager, Corporate Citizenship, and the Integrity & Compliance
Oce. You should continue supporting the charities of your choice regardless of whether they are
sponsored by BlackBerry, but on your own time and with your own funds. Our Company provides
opportunities for us to actively support charitable endeavors through the Proud2Be program ,
and encourages us to participate in these endeavors.
