WBCitizenship: Warner Bros. Entertainment Corporate Responsibility

Just another WordPress weblog

Corporate Philanthropy

Warner Bros. participates in philanthropy as an integral part of its corporate responsibility strategy. We support nonprofit organizations in the communities where we have a business presence and where our employees live and work. Apart from a monetary contribution, we enhance our relationships with these nonprofit organizations by connecting their programs and services to our employees and to our other community partners. Our employees are given opportunities to engage in the company’s philanthropic outreach and initiatives through company-provided matching grants, volunteer participation and nonprofit board leadership placement and support. Overall, we strive to focus our philanthropic efforts programmatically in the areas of youth enrichment, community engagement and environmental stewardship.
