Our Community

Being a first-class firm also means doing “good”, in addition to doing well. J.P. Morgan has a proud tradition of being a good corporate citizen around the world.

In 2007, the firm gave more than $100 million through grants and sponsorships to thousands of non-profit organizations around the world.

We also support the individual interests of our global employee population through the firm’s Matching Gift program and the local, regional and global volunteerism activities they initiate or in which they participate.

"Our first responsibility is to continue to build a healthy, vibrant company for the future. Doing our part to try to make the world a better place is not only the right thing to do, but it also makes good business sense."

– Jamie Dimon, Chairman &
CEO, JPMorgan Chase, 2007
Corporate Responsibility Report

For example, our “Team IB ” program was designed specifically to support our culture of philanthropic / charitable giving, one that also supports our business priorities. Through Team IB, we celebrate Investment Bank employees who give their time to support worthy causes, while fostering team building, and providing opportunities for them to get involved. Since its launch in 2006, employees have raised $1.8 million, engaged 3,000 volunteers and sponsored more than 30 projects that have helped communities around the world. From volunteering with microfinance organizations, raising money for relief in Darfur, mentoring in local schools, to conservation and renovation projects, IB employees have contributed their skills and enthusiasm to make an impact.

Below are links to a small sample of the many philanthropic organizations and causes J.P. Morgan supports. Our ongoing engagement in these types of efforts enriches our culture as well as the experience for our employees.
