*During Earth Month 2026, Everpure deepened its commitment to sustainability as employees worldwide volunteered in initiatives focused on climate action, renewable energy education, ecosystem restoration, and circular economy projects.*

In April, Everpure employees around the world came together to turn our sustainability values into action for Earth Month. In collaboration with the [Everpure Foundation](https://www.purestorage.com/company/sustainability/pure-good.html), teams hosted hands-on volunteer events, learning sessions, and local upcycling activities that made environmental stewardship tangible in offices and communities alike. Over 10% of our global employees participated in Earth Month activities, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability and a culture of purpose.

## Renewable energy and climate education

Employees came together to provide tools for sustainable energy and empower the next generation with environmental knowledge.

- **Solar energy stations:** Employees in Singapore and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, built stations to teach children about the mechanics and benefits of renewable energy for local nonprofit organizations [Kampung Senang](https://www.kampungsenang.org/) and [El Futuro North Carolina](https://elfuturo-nc.org/).
- **Solar lamp construction:** Teams in Lehi, Utah, assembled solar lamps to help [Community Action Services & Food Bank](https://communityactionprovo.org/) promote the practical use of solar energy.
- **Climate action kits:** In India, teammates created educational kits designed to engage local youth in climate advocacy, benefiting Bangalore-based [Need Base India](https://needbaseindia.org/).
- **Virtual design-thinking challenge:** Across the US, employees participated in a virtual hackathon hosted by [Team4Tech](https://team4tech.org/), brainstorming solutions to support climate advocate user communities and stakeholder engagement.
- **Sustainability panel:** Employees globally tuned in to hear from representatives throughout the company on how they’re embedding [sustainability](http://purestorage.com/company/sustainability.html) into their corporate strategies.

## Biodiversity and ecosystem restoration

This theme covered “boots-on-the-ground” work to repair natural habitats and support local wildlife populations.

- **Reforestation:** In Prague, employees collaborated with longtime partner [Sázíme Stromy](https://sazimestromy.cz/en/), planting trees to restore biodiversity on deforested land.
- **Seed ball creation:** In Calgary, employees and customers worked together to create seed balls for [CPAWS Southern Alberta](https://cpaws-southernalberta.org/), a nonprofit conservation organization working to promote thriving, healthy, and diverse lands and waters in Alberta.
- **Wildlife habitat protection:** The Santa Clara team collaborated with [South Bay Clean Creeks Coalition](https://sbcleancreeks.com/) to remove trash and debris from Los Gatos Creek, specifically to support the health of local salmon and beaver populations.
- **Marine research:** Employees throughout Europe analyzed images of the Great Barrier Reef, assisting [Citizens of the Reef](https://greatreefcensus.org/) in their quest to deliver broad-scale data to reef managers globally.
- **Community cleanups:** Employees in Dublin, Ireland; Lehi, Utah; and Staines, UK, rolled up their sleeves to clean up trash from their local parks.

## Circular economy and digital footprint

In addition to volunteering, employees focused on reducing waste and making conscious shifts in daily habits.

- **Upcycling and composting:** Employees in Prague and Santa Clara gave new life to old materials by upcycling clothing and backpacks.
- **E-waste and digital trash cleanup:** Team members around the world dropped off old electronics for recycling and reduced their environmental footprint by taking out digital trash.
- **Sustainability panel:** Subject matter experts from engineering, finance, supply chain, and more came together to discuss how they’re embedding sustainability into their business strategies.

Earth Month celebrations culminated in a fireside chat with professional climber and climate advocate Alex Honnold, who shared his journey and how [the Honnold Foundation](https://www.honnoldfoundation.org/) is using community-scale solar projects to advance climate resilience and energy equity around the world. Employees rallied around these efforts, raising $20,000 for the Honnold Foundation’s programs.

These efforts are part of a broader Everpure commitment to embed sustainability into how we work every day—from our people to our facilities to [our products](https://blog.purestorage.com/news-events/green-your-data-center-with-pure-storage/). By combining local volunteerism, listening sessions, and hands-on workshops, Everpure and the Everpure Foundation are helping employees turn climate concerns into concrete steps for people and the planet. As we close out Earth Month, one thing is clear: When our global community leans in together, small actions add up to meaningful, measurable impact.
