Social Responsibility

At Gravit8, we recognize the importance of social responsibility in today’s interconnected world. We are committed to leveraging our technological expertise to make a positive impact on society. This includes promoting digital inclusion by providing access to technology for underprivileged communities, supporting environmental sustainability through our eco-friendly practices, and fostering diversity and inclusivity within our workforce and beyond. We strive to be a responsible corporate citizen by actively engaging in philanthropic initiatives, volunteering efforts, and ethical business practices. By embracing our social responsibilities, we aim to contribute to a more equitable and sustainable future for all.
Gravit8 Give

To give back to the community, Gravit8 have an initiative called Gravit8 Give.

The mandate is simple; collect old workstations / laptops, reload them with a Linux operating system, and then donate these to churches, schools, and those in need. Where and when we can, we offer work experience to students in the form of mentoring during the rebuild and reload phase.
