Strategic community investment
ExxonMobil strives to make positive contributions to the communities and economies in which we operate through programs that seek to reduce barriers to development, including health, education, and infrastructure. This allows us to have a greater impact on the long-term sustainability of communities. We partner with local institutions, NGOs, governments, and development agencies to design strategic investment programs, which not only address recognized needs, but are also consistent with our own business goals. For example, through the ExxonMobil Foundation, we provide grants to fund projects in our two signature initiatives — the Africa Health Initiative and the ExxonMobil Women's Economic Opportunity Initiative.
ExxonMobil Women's Economic Opportunity Initiative
Women entrepreneurs are vital to reducing poverty and driving economic growth. Launched in 2005, the ExxonMobil Women’s Economic Opportunity Initiative helps women in developing countries fulfill their economic potential and drive economic and social change in their communities.
ExxonMobil has a long history of supporting and improving educational programs as an important business priority.
ExxonMobil has had a presence in Africa for over 100 years and we have felt firsthand the devastating human toll malaria has on communities.
