Championing Service<br />

As part of our commitment to employee<br />

engagement and volunteerism, over<br />

the past two years, the company has<br />

participated as a leading sponsor of the<br />

National Conference on Volunteering and<br />

Service. The conference, organized by<br />

the Points of Light Institute, is the world’s<br />

largest gathering of volunteers and service<br />

leaders. “<strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> is rooted in<br />

service — to its customers, clients and<br />

communities,” said Anne Motsenbocker,<br />

Texas Regional Market Manager, <strong>JPMorgan</strong><br />

<strong>Chase</strong>, at the <strong>2011</strong> National Conference on<br />

Volunteering and Service.<br />

In this spirit, <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> is a<br />

co-founder of The Community Corps,<br />

an online volunteer matching portal<br />

connecting nonprofit technology needs<br />

with technology professionals who want to<br />

use their sophisticated skills for the good<br />

of their communities. With The Community<br />

Corps, 141 of our employees donated over<br />

1,700 hours to nonprofits worldwide.<br />

Additionally, J.P. Morgan is the global<br />

sponsor of Grameen Foundation’s Bankers<br />

without Borders® volunteer initiative<br />

and, in 2010, we committed to support<br />

them with a three-year, $3 million grant.<br />

The program provides opportunities for<br />

experienced professionals to use a broad<br />

range of technical skills for projects focused<br />

on financial inclusion and literacy.<br />

Disaster Relief<br />

In <strong>2011</strong>, <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> employees rolled<br />

up their sleeves to help those in areas<br />

affected by disaster or poverty. Nearly 1,700<br />

employees at 43 locations across the globe<br />

logged more than 6,700 hours assembling<br />

more than 21,000 emergency hygiene kits<br />

and backpacks with school supplies. World<br />

Vision shipped these kits and backpacks to<br />

communities in need in ten countries and<br />

across various U.S. locations.<br />

Employee Giving Makes the Difference<br />

In <strong>2011</strong>, over 13,000 nonprofits received $8<br />

million from <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> as a result<br />

of our employees donating through our<br />

annual giving campaign and Matching Gift<br />

program. We match employees’ charitable<br />

donations, dollar for dollar, up to $1,000 per<br />

employee per calendar year. Of the 13,000<br />

charitable organizations, nearly 7,000<br />

received donations through our annual<br />

employee giving campaign. In <strong>2011</strong>, nearly<br />

18,000 employees generously donated $6.6<br />

million through our campaign, $4 million of<br />

which was matched by <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong>.<br />

Honoring Our Employee Service<br />

The <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> Foundation matches<br />

“More than anything, we<br />

recognized that, as timecrunched<br />

as our days seem,<br />

we have hours that could be<br />

better spent. We realized that<br />

even small tasks yield big<br />

results. It is gratifying to know<br />

we work for a company that<br />

chases what really matters.”<br />

Maryann Corkery, <strong>2011</strong> Analyst Class<br />

employee volunteer hours<br />

with a monetary gift to<br />

the charity in which each<br />

employee participated<br />

through volunteer service.<br />

Grants range from $150<br />

to $1,000 for the qualifying<br />

nonprofit in which the service<br />

was performed. The more hours<br />

employees give, the more<br />

their organizations receive.<br />

We awarded 5,100<br />

volunteer grants totaling<br />

$1,558,000 in recognition<br />

of 4,900 employees’<br />

personal commitment of<br />

their time to volunteerism.<br />
