Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement and this year Smartsheet wanted to
give back to the causes that mean so much to our employees.
We asked our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to nominate and vote for non-profit organizations that directly support the communities they represent. Now, we’re excited to announce the organizations that were selected to receive a monetary donation from Smartsheet.
