Caring for
Our World
DaVita is committed to improving the quality of life in our communities. From our own backyard in Colorado to other countries, our teammates participate in a number of local service projects, outreach initiatives, charitable contributions and sustainability efforts that positively impact a growing number of lives.

Environmental Stewardship
Created in 2007, Village Green is DaVita’s initiative to promote environmental sustainability in our dialysis centers and offices around the world. Since then, we’ve made progress on our commitment to reduce our environmental footprint and educating our teammates and patients on what they can do to help.
2021 Highlights
Our 2025 climate targets were approved by the Science Based Targets initiative
100% of our U.S. operations are now powered by renewable energy via our virtual power purchase agreements
750+ clinics received energy-efficient upgrades with LED lighting or building management systems

100% Renewable Energy
We reached a big milestone in 2021 when the Prospero II solar farm became operational, helping us achieve our 100% renewable energy goal for our U.S. locations. DaVita’s agreements to purchase energy from wind and solar farm developments are expected to create as much clean energy annually as the amount of electricity we use to operate our U.S. centers.
