Zebra believes in doing well by doing good in the communities in which we operate – even the ones we’re visiting temporarily.

And that’s exactly what more than 3,000 Zebras and partners did throughout January in Reno, Nevada; Jeju, South Korea; and Paris, France; where we hosted our regional sales kickoff and partner summit events.

Marking a New Year by Leaving a Positive, Life-Changing Mark in Host Communities

At the beginning of every year, Zebra gathers its internal sales team and external channel partners around the world to acknowledge our successes of the prior year and set the stage for what’s to come. It’s all about motivation, preparation and celebration. It’s also a great opportunity to make a positive impact in our temporarily extended geographic footprint with one of our strategic charitable partners, the Red Cross.

Together, our employees and partners across the globe graciously contributed more than $40,000 USD to the Red Cross, with donations collected at each sales and partner event going directly to the host city’s local branch: the American Red Cross of Northern Nevada, the Korean Red Cross and the French Red Cross.

These funds will be used to support each local Red Cross’ mission of preventing and alleviating human suffering and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies’ (IFRC) mission of “providing effective and high quality procurement services to all members of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.” We are eternally grateful for the generosity of Zebra Nation today and every day. And to the Red Cross and our other charitable partners, we thank you for all you do for local communities.
