In the Community

Mission

True to the culture of SAGE and in keeping with the company’s corporate vision statement that says, in part, “SAGE believes passionately that engaged scholarship lies at the heart of any healthy society and that education is intrinsically valuable,” SAGE is committed to strengthening its ties to the community.

At SAGE we believe in adding globally, locally, and within our own community. As befits a company devoted to education and the dissemination of knowledge, much of SAGE's civic efforts are focused on increasing educational opportunities. SAGE also supports selected organizations providing human/social services and resources that create sound communities where SAGE employees live and work.

Philanthropic Focus

Over the last several years, SAGE has invested millions of dollars and committed millions more to the development of key partnerships. Charitable donations are made to reflect SAGE’s core values and compliment SAGE’s dedication to impacting lives in inspiring and innovative ways. SAGE’s philanthropic efforts are focused on the following areas:

Education
As an academic and scholarly publisher, SAGE believes that engaged scholarship lies at the heart of any healthy society and that education is intrinsically valuable. SAGE funds organizations and programs that focus on strengthening higher education and/or improving K–12 education.

Social/Human Services
For more than 40 years, SAGE has published books and journals in a multitude of disciplines, with a heavy focus on the social sciences. SAGE provides funding to organizations working to deal with some of the many problems addressed in our publications.

Community Life
SAGE dedicates substantial resources to strengthening and enriching the community, thereby making it a more desirable place to live and work. This investment helps to ensure the richness of the arts and cultural organizations are more accessible to all members of the community.

We encourage employee community involvement through sponsorship of volunteer programs and matching of charitable donations.
