Pursuing Health for All
The Gilead Foundation works to create a thriving health ecosystem with health prosperity for all. The inequities in our communities, classrooms and workplaces create lifelong barriers that prevent access to healthy, fulfilling lives. We take a holistic approach to mitigate the root causes of these inequities and create systems of support.
Through the Gilead Foundation’s three giving pillars, we're working at all levels of impact, starting with Gilead’s generous employees and branching out to our communities and society as a whole.
Giving Together Program
Our employees' passions and willingness to help those in need is the foundation of our commitment to serving others. Through our internal Giving Together program, we encourage a culture of giving by matching employee contributions to organizations they care about while supporting employee volunteerism.
Building Community Donations
Together with local community partners, our Building Community Donations program addresses social determinants of health. We build healthy communities by supporting local organizations focused on Science and Innovation, Access and Health Equity, and People and Culture.
