Education & Philanthropy
Meeting the challenges of tomorrow
Our children are growing up in extraordinary times – where the limitless creation and consumption of data is woven into every facet of their lives. They see it pouring out of their phones and laptops every second of every day. So much so that they run the risk of becoming more complacent, rather than curious.
The rise of new technologies demands a new generation of skills. For decades, SAS has supported education at all levels to shrink the analytics skills gap and prepare more students for college, work and success in the analytics economy. Education was a key pillar of the company’s investments.
SAS has deep roots in academia. Its founders were part of a consortium of eight universities to analyze vast amounts of agricultural data. These bold minds were pioneers in using data for the greater good. Decades later, education is still its primary philanthropic focus. From preschoolers to graduate students, SAS supports countless educational programs to help students from all backgrounds reach their full potential as future leaders and innovators.
As an essential part of its commitment to education and philanthropy, SAS contributes to charitable initiatives in the US and abroad to build stronger foundations for brighter futures. By driving efforts to improve education and society, SAS embraces its role in the greater global community.

Data for Good
Analytics helping humanity
There is widespread evidence that big data analytics helps achieve short- and long-term development goals around the world. As the global leader in analytics, SAS is passionate about applying its cutting-edge technology and expertise to help solve some of society’s biggest problems such as poverty, disease, hunger and illiteracy.
SAS has always been an organization motivated by challenges to use its technology to build a better world. As the UN Sustainable Development Goals work to reduce inequalities and ensure healthy living, SAS seeks out opportunities where it can help create a brighter future for all. SAS’ social innovation initiative works to find creative ways to accelerate global progress and move the world toward a more sustainable future. One of the ways that SAS supports this goal is through the Data for Good movement, which encourages using data in meaningful ways to solve humanitarian issues around poverty, health, human rights, education and the environment. From helping to boost healthy bee populations and combating deforestation to revealing racial disparities in homeownership and investing in patient wellness, SAS is contributing to building a better world for the people and the planet.
SAS’ social impact programs rely on the curiosity and expertise of SAS employees who are passionate about using their skills for social good. Thanks to these efforts as well as the company’s partnerships with customers, industry groups, nonprofits, governments and global organizations, SAS continues to discover new opportunities for analytics to serve the greater good.

Integrity, ethics and compliance
As a good corporate citizen, SAS knows its success depends on upholding high ethical standards in dealings with colleagues, customers, suppliers and competitors. This moral compass also steers SAS’ workplace culture, which attracts and retains like-minded employees who perpetuate these high standards.
