The total number of bees donated to the world by KnowBe4 comes to 455,000, which are thought to pollinate 3.9 billion flowers per day.

"This year, we celebrate another milestone, our 13th anniversary, by protecting the endangered species that inhabit the nations and communities we work in around the world," says Stu Sjouwerman, CEO of KnowBe4.

"We are also pleased to continue our annual practice of adopting beehives, which will have a real, beneficial impact on the environment. These gifts and adoptions are a wonderful way to commemorate this achievement for our organization by doing something to benefit nature.

In addition, KnowBe4 has supported the removal of 12,000 pounds of trash from the ocean and organized community drives for school supplies in partnership with Habitat for Humanity.
