$1.9 MILLION GIVEN TO ''EMPLOYEES' FAVORITE CHARITIES''
Local ExxonMobil Employees Set Campaign Record
ExxonMobil today announced that its employees and companies in the
Metropolitan D.C. area have raised a record $1.9 million for
non-profits during its recently concluded "Employees' Favorite
Charities Campaign."
"Our employees did an exceptional job this year in showing support
for the community where we live and work," said Mark Merrill, 2005
ExxonMobil Employees' Favorite Charities Campaign Chair, and Vice
President of Planning, ExxonMobil Fuels Marketing Company. "This has
been a particularly challenging fundraising year for many local
organizations, and our employees understand this. We hope that our
record-breaking efforts, with over 96% of our employees contributing
this year, will go a long way toward meeting the needs of many local
charities."
Employees and ExxonMobil this year increased their financial
support for local non-profit organizations by almost 10% versus last
year. The ExxonMobil Employees' Favorite Charities Campaign provides
employees with the opportunity to give to any local charity, with 100%
of the employee contribution going to a designated charity. In
addition, Exxon Mobil Corporation provides a corporate contribution
that is distributed to 185 local health and human services non-profit
organizations based on aggregate donations from employees.
(Alphabetical listing of these organizations follows.)
The ExxonMobil family has a long history of supporting community
groups and educational organizations in the greater Washington area,
not only with contributions and grants, but also with thousands of
employees and retirees who volunteer their time and talent to local
non-profits.
