Sitting within JPMorgan Chase’s Corporate Responsibility (CR) division, the mission of the Global Philanthropy department is to enable more people to contribute to and share in the rewards of the economy. We believe that reducing inequality and creating widely shared prosperity requires collaboration of business, government, nonprofit and other civic organizations, particularly in the cities and metropolitan regions that power economic growth.

JPMorgan Chase annually invests $350 million to create pathways to opportunity so that individuals have access to the knowledge, skills, resources, and capital they need to secure their futures and compete in the global economy. Within Global Philanthropy, the Employee Engagement and Volunteerism (EEV) team manages JPMorgan Chase’s portfolio of employee volunteer programs, which engages employees in strategic volunteerism and workplace giving. The team manages a portfolio of skills-based programming that leverages the talent and expertise of employees to support the firm’s Corporate Responsibility agenda.
