Community Development

Invesco Ltd. is committed to responsible corporate citizenship and encourages employees to play active roles in the growth and development of the communities in which they live and work. By donating time, energy and other resources, the Invesco team supports a variety of local and international programs for the arts, education, sports, the environment and charitable organizations. Highlights include:

• Invesco is giving back and committed to investing in our local Communities. Atlanta associates participate in a variety of charitable events including the Cystic Fibrosis Rose Pedal Ride, serving meals at the City of Refuge, raising funds for United Way and donating blood to the American Red Cross. Employees continue to serve on numerous boards and committees in our community contributing valuable time and resources to make a difference.
  
• Atlantic Trust supports nonprofit organizations in the firm's local communities across the U.S., both through professionals who volunteer their time and expertise, as well as through sponsorships.
  
• Invesco Asia-Pacific employees support local charitable initiatives by taking part in a charity run, bike ride and dress special day, with all donations going to charitable organizations in support of local community services.
  
• The Invesco Community Support Group run out of the Henley and London offices focuses on both the smaller charities where the Group can really make a difference, as well as the national charities. The Group offers support to a wide range of initiatives, schools and organizations through sponsorships, events and volunteering. Local schools benefit with funding for equipment, educational day trips and some of our members volunteering at the schools. Donations support several charities including: WAMSDAD - for the continued provision of facilities for disabled athletes and assistance towards the training of future paralympians; Sue Ryder Nettlebed Hospice, Henley & St Raphael's Hospice London, both which provide respite care; Nomad Project, Henley - to enable them to employ a detached youth worker to build relationships with young people, addressing issues that young people have, acting as a mediator between local authorities including town council and police; NSPCC Henley branch - Childline support; Cancer Research UK; Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital.
