IBM's corporate donation strategy is
to combine its technology and its people in effective partnerships to bring solutions
to the systemic problems that impact society, business and quality of life. IBM's
focus is primarily K-12 and pre-school education, and workforce development. IBM
also supports selected programs in the areas of health, human welfare and the
arts. Corporate contributions valued at more than $2.2 million, in the form of
IBM technology and cash, benefited Canadian communities in 2001.
In addition, IBM employees and retirees pledged $2.9 million in personal donations
to be distributed to more than 1,000 registered charities across Canada through
its Employee Charitable Fund Campaign. In addition, more than 40 IBM employees
volunteered their time for a number of new Women in Technology initiatives (Exploring
Interests in Technology and Engineering - EXITE summer camp; e-Mentoring) for
Grade 7 and 8 girls, designed to stimulate their ongoing interest in maths and
sciences. In total, IBMers volunteered more than 400,000 hours of their personal
time supporting their communities. |
