<strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> recognises its responsibility to give back to the community. We<br />
believe that workplace giving is an efficient and effective way to do this.<br />

Program which allows employees to donate to charity partners through<br />
regular payroll deductions. All donations are matched dollar-for-dollar by <strong>JB</strong><br />
<strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong>.<br />
"Change For Change" is the Company’s "spare change" donation program.<br />
Donation boxes are installed in all stores and the Support Office to<br />
encourage our customers and employees to donate some <strong>of</strong> their spare<br />
change to help change the lives <strong>of</strong> others. All donations are divided evenly<br />
between our charity partners.<br />
<strong>JB</strong> <strong>Hi</strong>-<strong>Fi</strong> is concerned with the well-being <strong>of</strong> communities in which it is<br />

involvement by its staff in public or community service.<br />
