IMPACT Day

IMPACT Day has evolved into a signature event. Each May, employees across the Prologis Group leave their offices to spend a day volunteering with NPOs and other organizations working in education, social welfare, the environment, and other fields in their local communities around the world.

In 2024, employees from our Tokyo office and the asset management company collaborated with the Forest Lifestyle Institute, a specified nonprofit corporation, to plant approximately 1,000 trees—including cherry, cedar, and maple species—in the forest near a facility for people with intellectual disabilities operated by Komyokai Social Welfare Corporation. The forest had suffered damage from typhoons and pests. In both 2025 and 2026, as a follow-up, we carried out undergrowth clearing activities in the planted area to support the trees’ growth. In addition, we also helped plant sweet potato seedlings, harvest garlic sprouts and pack broad beans at the same facility.

The employees in Osaka spent the day conducting a survey of creatures that live in the Osaka Bay area. Prologis has been working with marine biologists and researchers from an NPO that focuses on environmental conservation since 2015.

Partnering with Stakeholders

Prologis Group collaborates with stakeholders to address social challenges through volunteer and disaster response initiatives led by partner organizations. In Noto, Ishikawa Prefecture, we support recovery efforts through Pro Bono Noto, a pro bono platform operated by LY Corporation and Noto Renpuku. We also participate in the “Disaster Support Workplace Certification Program” operated by Peace Winds Japan, a certified nonprofit organization, through its emergency disaster relief project ARROWS. Through these partnerships, we help communities recover from earthquakes and prepare for future disasters.

Prologis Foundation

The Prologis Foundation was established in the United States in 2001, and the Prologis Foundation in Japan was established in 2019. Both foundations focus on supporting education, the environment, and social welfare. In Japan, the Prologis Japan Foundation provides the following:

Grants to NPOs

In addition to volunteer activities, the Prologis Foundation actively donates to NPOs and other organizations to address urgent social needs. Every fall, in coordination with our internal wellness program, the Healthy Steps Challenges, we make donations to multiple organizations, and we also operate a program that enables employees to participate in individual giving.

Scholarships for University Students from Children’s Homes

Since 2019, we have awarded scholarships to help university students from children’s homes who must reduce part-time work hours during their job search.
The program helps ease financial concerns so they can focus on securing employment.
Each year we support around ten scholars, and for those who are interested, we also offer business-etiquette training and opportunities to connect with past recipients.

Community Workforce Initiative (CWI)

The Prologis group operates the Community Workforce Initiative (CWI) to help address labor shortages in the logistics sector by partnering with local workforce development programs to provide job placement services, mentorship, skills training, internships, and more. Since its launch in 2018, more than 40,000 people worldwide have participated in CWI.
In Japan, the Prologis Foundation runs CWI and offers forklift operator training at no cost. Eligible participants are individuals employed at Prologis Parks in the Kanto or Kansai regions who are recommended by our customer companies. Through this program, we aim to help participants enhance their skills and broaden future employment opportunities.
