Supporting Black Lives Matter and standing up for justice

Published on June 02, 2020
Dropbox condemns the systemic racism and police brutality against Black Americans, and mourns the tragic murders of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and countless others. Our CEO Drew Houston has donated $500,000 to the Black Lives Matter Foundation to support its direct work to eliminate violence and systematic racism against Black people and he’s matching every donation made by a Dropboxer in June to the Black Lives Matter Foundation, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, and the National Urban League. This effort is in addition to the company matching program, so that our Dropboxers’ contributions will have triple the impact. We stand in solidarity with our Black Dropboxers, the Black community, and all those working for justice against racism and the violence it incites. This is not a moment, this is a movement. A racially just society is the only society where the world can truly work better. Read more about our next steps here.
