Achieved our carbon and water ENVIRONMENTAL targets well ahead of schedule
Reached more than 7 million STUDENTS through Amgen Foundation
Donated medicines through Direct Relief to PATIENTS in 18 low- and middle-income countries
We are improving access to medicine for patients around the world on multiple fronts. A 2018 milestone was our donation of nearly $100 million worth of Amgen cancer treatment and supportive care medicines for distribution to patients in 18 developing countries at no cost through the nonprofit organization Direct Relief.
We know that a diverse and inclusive workplace supports innovation and contributes to our aspiration to be the world’s best human therapeutics company. While we have a workforce that is 52 percent female globally and 35 percent minorities in the U.S., we have set new goals to increase diversity and inclusion at Amgen.
We support the health and wellbeing of communities around the world where we work and live. A cornerstone of that commitment is leading-edge virtual and online educational programs offered by the Amgen Foundation. The Foundation’s $6.5 million sponsorship of Harvard University’s LabExchange virtual lab platform is a 2018 highlight.
At Amgen, our staff avidly pursue targets for conserving resources and reducing carbon—so much so that we met our carbon and water targets well ahead of schedule. Next-generation biomanufacturing, which conserves great amounts of energy and water and reduces carbon emissions, is one of the practices that helps drive our progress.
