Avast employees contribute to community
efforts through personal volunteering

Since the start of the pandemic, Avast employees have also been volunteering their time, technology, and expertise to provide support for local initiatives worldwide. Many of our community efforts have focused on the key locations we operate in. In the Czech Republic, we delivered one million face masks to a wide range of care organizations, NGOs, and medical services who are struggling to source enough protective gear. With our offices closed due to social distancing regulations, we are delivering 1,000 hot meals every day (usually meant for Avast staff) to key workers putting their lives on the line to keep us safe.

Avast employees have also helped create 3D printed face masks for distribution to frontline workers, and cooperated with the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) to produce full-face masks for medical use. Some of our linguistic experts have been translating medical materials from different languages and sharing them with local hospitals. Additionally, we have supported community schemes, such as helping with food banks in cities like Alameda and Sacramento in the US.
