Community Engagement

Lilly’s purpose, to make life better, begins with patients and extends to the people and places around us, especially those with limited resources. Beyond our medicines, we invest our time, expertise and resources to drive social impact with a focus on health. Whether it’s a health crisis like COVID-19 or a natural disaster, Lilly steps up for the common good. We also engage in targeted social issues that affect our business and employees, with an emphasis on racial justice and education.

Starting in our headquarters’ hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana, we focus on action and advocacy that build stronger communities where people and companies can prosper and thrive. We collaborate with organizations that have proven track records of social impact. And we encourage our employees to volunteer and give in ways that advance our purpose and theirs.
