Zoom Cares is Zoom Communications’ corporate philanthropy initiative, and its grantmaking is centered on a small set of highly specific causes: youth mental health, education equity, and climate action, with additional rapid-response support in disasters and humanitarian emergencies. It appears to favor invitation-based funding rather than open applications, and its social impact strategy is also reinforced by product-based support through nonprofit discounts on select Zoom services. Nonprofits that align with youth well-being, access to learning, or climate resilience are the best thematic fit.
Corporate philanthropy administered through a donor-advised fund, with invitation-based monetary grants and occasional rapid-response funding; also offers nonprofit product discounts rather than relying solely on cash grants.
Because grantmaking is invitation-based, nonprofits should focus on relationship-building, demonstrate strong alignment with one of Zoom Cares’ core themes, and be ready to show measurable impact in youth mental health, education equity, climate, or crisis response. If seeking support, emphasize scalable programs, urgent community need, and clear use of Zoom tools for service delivery or convening.
