In 2015, Arrow continued to advance its award-winning SAM car
project that enabled quadriplegic former racecar driver Sam Schmidt
to realize his dream of driving again. Arrow also collaborated with
the nonprofit organization Close the Gap on the DigiTruck project,
which is deploying mobile classrooms and clinics to developing
nations to help close the digital divide.
“Arrow is committed to developing innovative technologies that
help change people’s lives. Our CSR and sustainability programs
continue to demonstrate Arrow’s commitment to working Five Years
Out and guiding today’s innovators to a better tomorrow,” said
Michael J. Long, Arrow’s president, chairman and chief executive
officer.
Arrow evaluates the impact of its CSR projects and community
partners through a sophisticated engagement rating system that
includes elements of similar evaluation tools used by the Boston
College Center for Corporate Citizenship. The company recognizes it
is accountable to its employees, customers, shareholders and to the
communities in which it operates.
“Arrow’s CSR program is unique because we focus on tangible and
impactful ways that technology can improve people’s lives,” said
