About Us

Community Development

Below is a small sample of the many philanthropic organizations and causes J.P. Morgan supports. Our ongoing engagement in these types of efforts enriches our culture as well as the experience for our employees.

CRISIS: CRISIS is a national U.K. charity that helps homeless people rebuild their social and practical skills, reintegrate into society and live independently. J.P. Morgan has worked with CRISIS since 1997 with funding for a holiday card program  and with their volunteering program. J.P. Morgan donated $300,000 to support The Urban Village Project, a pioneering community in East London.    

Global Fund for Women: The Global Fund for Women was three years old when, in 1990, it first received a grant of $10,000 from the Morgan Guaranty Trust Company, a subsidiary of JPMorgan. The Global Fund has grown to the largest fund for women's rights in the world, providing nearly $7.8 million in grants annually to almost 600 women’s groups worldwide.

J.P. Morgan Europe, Middle Eastand Africa (EMEA) Volunteering Program: This program offers volunteering opportunities to both JPMorgan business-led groups and individual employees. With a J.P. Morgan-donated grant and working directly with the charity, employees manage their events, which can range from running skills sessions for unemployed teenagers to refurbishing new homes for the homeless.

Korean Welfare Organisation: This organization assists underprivileged children, ensuring that children of families on welfare have access to extra-curricular learning opportunitiesand guidance on preparing for exams and counseling. It also provides lunch during school holidays. 

Robin Hood Foundation: Founded by some of the top business leaders in New York, Robin Hood targets poverty in New York City through venture funding and partners with the best community-based groups to maximize results. J.P. Morgan has supported the Robin Hood Foundation through grants and by sponsoring Robin Hood board recruitment drives at the firm’s headquarters in New York City.
