Connecting with local communities

Volunteering
Charitable giving
We take an active role in supporting many worthy causes and organizations in our local communities. Some examples include youth mentoring, child/adult special education, gender diversity, poverty and homelessness, various health causes, women’s leadership, and the arts. This commitment to doing good flows through the organization.
We also support employees who choose to make donations to the causes they value through our Matching Gift Program which launched in 2018. Each calendar year, HarbourVest matches up to USD$1,000 in employee donations made to global non-profit organizations. In 2021, employee and firm matched donations totaled over $230,000, benefiting 266 unique non-profit organizations globally. This was the highest matched donation in the history of the Matching Gift Program.
In June 2021, we launched our first Peer Matching campaign in response to the ongoing pandemic challenges faced in India and Colombia where donations made by team members were matched both by the firm and a group of generous colleagues. We launched our second Peer Matching campaign in support of World Central Kitchen’s efforts in Ukraine during March 2022.
