Employee volunteerism and giving

In 2008, more than 24,900 ExxonMobil employees, retirees, and their families worldwide donated more than 690,000 volunteer hours to 5350 charitable organizations in 30 countries through company-sponsored volunteer programs. Of the total volunteers, 14,300 participants donated more than 87,200 hours to more than 1,000 organizations in countries outside the United States.

Employees and retirees donated $36.1 million through ExxonMobil’s matching gift, disaster relief, and employee giving programs. When combined with corporate donations, ExxonMobil — together with its employees and retirees — contributed $225.2 million to community investments around the world.
