AWS impact in communities
We continuously invest in communities where Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centers are located by supporting local jobs, generating economic growth, providing skills training and education, and unlocking opportunities for local businesses and suppliers. We also establish sustainability initiatives and develop engagement programs in collaboration with local organizations. Find out how our investments in eastern Oregon and northern Virginia have made a difference to the people in these regions.
As AWS continues to invest in Virginia, we remain committed to strengthening the communities where we operate. Watch 'Why AWS is Proud to Call Virginia Home.'
