Tata in North America

Staying true to the Tata tradition of giving back to society, Tata companies in North America, through their corporate social responsibility initiatives, aim to be good corporate citizens by supporting local community initiatives in the areas in which they live and work.

Tata companies in North America focus on positively impacting education in communities where Tata companies operate. During the Tata Volunteering Week, the Tata Sons North America office worked with its partners First Book, First Book Canada, the Magic Johnson Foundation and the SOS Children's Villages of Illinois as well as a Washington-DC based NGO Vital Voices to create over 1,000 volunteering opportunities for Tata employees in North America.
