At Draper, one of our missions is to foster a culture that values perspectives and drives meaningful impact through corporate and community engagement. We are committed to integrating STEM education initiatives and veteran support into the fabric of our organization, with the goal of creating long-term value for both our workforce and the communities we serve.
Collaboration is is essential to advancing this mission and we actively seek partnerships with organizations that share our commitment to education, innovation, and service including fellowships, start-ups, veteran groups, professional societies, and academic institutions. Together, we aim to build pathways that empower future leaders and support those who have served.
Employee Activities Committee (EAC)
| At Draper, we believe that a strong, connected workplace culture extends beyond the office. Our Employee Activities Committee (EAC) fosters employee engagement, teamwork, and well-being through a wide range of recreational and team-building activities. The EAC organizes seasonal sports leagues and events including hockey, softball, soccer, and more, providing employees with opportunities to connect, stay active, and build lasting relationships across departments. These activities not only support a healthy work-life balance but also strengthen collaboration and camaraderie across our organization. Participation is open to all employees, and we encourage everyone to get involved whether you're a seasoned athlete or simply looking to try something new. At Draper, we’re proud to offer an environment where people can professionally and personally thrive. |  |
