In it for good
We believe we have a responsibility to tackle disadvantage globally and in our own backyards. We’re passionate about the power education and business have to transform the world.
A new approach to corporate philanthropy
In Atlassian’s early days, founders Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar built giving back into the business, with a belief that education and business have the power to change the world.
They pledged 1% of the company's equity, profit, employee time and products to social good - and the Atlassian Foundation was born.
We're passionate about helping impact-driven organisations do more and dream bigger. We partner with some of the world’s most exciting education innovators and we co-founded the Pledge 1% movement.
The Foundation is a special part of the Atlassian experience. We empower our employees to use their talent, time and tools to be the change they seek in the world.
