San Francisco Achievers Partnership
We’ve partnered with San Francisco Achievers (SFA) from 2021 to 2022. SFA is a non-profit that supports African-American young men in San Francisco Unified School District to lead and thrive in higher education and beyond by closing the opportunity gap. SFA does this through college scholarships, leadership training, and mentoring.
In May 2022, SFA held its annual Awards Ceremony. 25 outstanding high school seniors were awarded scholarships to start their college journey! These graduates will be enrolling at a wide variety of educational institutions across the United States.
Employees from The Myers-Briggs Company have supported SFA with two career panel workshops, scholarship applicant interviews, marketing support, financial donations, and awards ceremony decorating and set-up.
Years ago, a mother and daughter had an audacious dream to change the world for the better. Their belief, that understanding yourself and others would provide a path to better lives for all, resonated with our founder, Dr. Black. He believed in the importance of a company’s purpose. And he was ahead of his time in his emphasis on the growing importance of a company’s approach to doing business.
Our commitment includes providing socially-sound, high-quality products and services in an environmentally responsible manner.
We're here to inspire everyone to lead more successful and fulfilling lives. How do we do that?

We’re at a pivotal point for global climate change and reducing our carbon footprint and carbon offsetting are key initiatives for our company. To show our dedication to this initiative we have signed the NetZero by 2030 pledge as part of our commitment to B Lab’s Declaration of a Climate Emergency.
As part of our commitment to a low carbon future we are working hard on the digital transformation of our business. This includes encouraging customers to use electronic versions of our products, reducing paper use and shipping. We also source electricity from renewable sources, limit travel to essential needs, and work to offset carbon where we can.
As part our support for the B Corp climate justice movement we are actively engaging in projects that address climate injustice, acknowledging that those areas and nations most negatively impacted by climate change are the least able to influence and change the impacts of the global crisis. We are actively seeking out verified carbon offsetting projects which support vulnerable communities to improve livelihoods and the local environment.
Giving back to the community has been a priority of The Myers-Briggs Company since 1956. The company actively supports the communities in which its employees live and work by budgeting a percentage of earnings to contribute to various causes and organizations.
Consistent with its corporate vision, The Myers-Briggs Company’s philanthropic activities today focus on contributing to programs that support people, promote educational opportunities, and help underserved communities. Our commitment to corporate citizenship also extends to providing high-quality products and services that are socially sound and conducting our business in an environmentally responsible manner.

De Buurtboerderij – Community Center in the Netherlands
We had a team bonding event in De Buurtboerderij, a community center run by volunteers and customers of De Regenboog Groep. They have helped the homeless, addicts and people with psychological problems for over 40 years!
For example, De Buurtboerderij offers people located close to the labor markets a safe and empowering work environment to gain experience and build self-confidence. An added bonus, the vegetables on the menu come from the surrounding gardens, roamed by its own flock of sheep!
