FAIRFAX, Va.-- ExxonMobil's employees in the Metropolitan D.C. area raised more than $2.7 million for local community and charitable organizations during the 2009 Employees' Favorite Charities Campaign. The amount is a record level for the program, which has raised nearly $16 million for organizations in the Metropolitan D.C. area since 2002.
"With 99 percent participation by our area employees, we are proud to continue the ExxonMobil tradition of giving. Our employees feel honored to give back to their communities," said John MacFarlane, chair of the 2009 campaign.
This year, employees donated to more than 500 charities with nearly half qualifying for ExxonMobil's charitable matching program. As a result, 230 local non-profit organizations providing health and human services will receive contributions from ExxonMobil in addition to the individual donations made by employees.
