Our commitment to environmental sustainability
Sustainability for us is not just a policy, it’s our way of life. We want to move our organization toward greater sustainability. We are constantly looking for opportunities to make a positive impact on the environment and adapting our practices as an organization to use the resources responsibly and efficiently.
Interconnecting people, planet, and business for the
collective good
We are determined to make a difference. Our dedication to critically important environmental, social, and governance objectives helps to improve our world. We understand that people, the planet, and our business are interconnected. We would have it no other way.
We do our part by aligning with EcoVadis guidelines, the United Nations Global Compact, and other environmental initiatives. We do this by continuing to increase our contributions to the communities where Axtrians live and work. And we do this by ensuring – through a values-based culture – that we are managing our business responsibly.
We are proud to have instilled the principles of supporting the environment and planet into all our programs.
Preserving the earth for the collective good
Sustainability is imperative to make the world a better place now and for future generations. It is at the core of our business operations and practices. We have imbibed the principles of saving the environment and planet into all our programs.
Axtria has created employee working groups focused on green initiatives and community programs, increasing our environmental efforts.
“Be a part of the solution, not part of the pollution!”
Axtrians participated in an eco-friendly challenge to help achieve a cleaner and greener environment.

Improving the quality of life for children in our communities
We choose to conduct our business by committing to the core beliefs outlined by our R.I.G.H.T. values: Responsiveness, Integrity, Get Going, Humility, and Team player. These guide our day-to-day work with clients and our activities in communities around the world.

Axtria values its long-standing association with the Foundation for Excellence (FFE), which transforms the lives of underprivileged yet academically brilliant students through scholarships and other assistance. Four FFE students had an opportunity to intern with Axtria and later earned full-time roles. In 2024, 44 Axtrians volunteered to serve as mentors.
Helping young stars shine their brightest
Axtria partners with non-governmental organizations in India to help improve lives through initiatives in primary, secondary, and vocational education for underprivileged children. The program also promotes primary health and preventive health programs while providing equal opportunities for poor children to pursue professional training.
Education for underprivileged children
Working with teachers at Peshine Avenue Elementary School in Newark, N.J., we provided essential supplies that helped teachers focus on teaching, and provided students new iPads and other supplies that helped them focus on learning.
Helping teachers help their students
Axtria is actively involved in supporting the National Black Child Development Institute and its efforts to improve and advance the quality of life for Black students and their families through education and advocacy. Axtrians have raised funds to help children receive essential developmental resources focused on their unique strengths and needs in such areas as early childhood education, health, child welfare, literacy, and family engagement.
Helping Black children succeed
By contributing to the well-being of our communities, we find more meaning in life.
