Elanco's Global Day of Purpose (GDOP) is our annual capstone employee volunteerism event, which has evolved from a single day to become a popular year-round initiative including dozens of individual and group volunteer events around the world.
Our team has taken this year's annual month of giving and volunteerism to new heights with more than 150 volunteer events scheduled. 150. And counting! Beginning with our annual Global Day of Purpose at the beginning of October, teams around the world have been participating in volunteer efforts to give back to their local community. Through river and park clean ups, volunteering at animal shelters, manning food banks, and, yes, even scuba diving for trash, our team is helping improve the lives of animals, people and the environment.
