Making a difference in our global community.
Customers doing good: The annual SPS Commerce charity auction
We’re proud to serve customers who share our commitment to supporting causes that improve our local communities. The annual SPS Commerce Charity Auction benefits a number of area causes, including Food Shelf Minneapolis. Each July, the SPS sales team solicits product donations from current customers and auctions them off to employees for a great cause.
Shaping tomorrow’s leaders: Work-study programs
As a global employer, we believe it’s our duty to nurture the potential of tomorrow’s business leaders through training and career preparation. We partner with two work-study programs to provide guidance and real-world experience to underprivileged high school students:
- Cristo Rey: The Minneapolis location of this 25-school network sends inner-city students into professional work environments to gain valuable real-life experience. We are committed to supporting this successful initiative by welcoming students to work in our headquarters, where they contribute to the daily operations of various SPS Commerce departments.
- Genesys Works: Genesys Works connects underprivileged high school students to tech-based internships that give them a more complete picture of their career opportunities. After an eight-week training program, SPS welcomes students to work alongside our experts, where they learn professional work skills and etiquette.
