“Helping all people live healthy lives” is BD’s corporate purpose and the inspiration behind our global enterprise. It is a call to action that resounds with BD associates around the world. By giving our time, our talent and our resources through philanthropic and charitable efforts, we seek to improve global health standards and access to healthcare for all communities. Since the Company was founded 110 years ago, BD has actively donated cash, product and expertise to non-profit and educational organizations in North America and throughout the world.

We focus our philanthropy outreach and community relations programs in areas where BD can initiate the greatest impact — supporting international immunization campaigns, promoting healthcare worker safety, raising awareness of pandemic diseases, providing disaster relief and much more.
