Community Service

Good corporate citizenship has been one of Fidelity's core values since the company was founded.
Fidelity is committed to being a good corporate citizen in all of the communities we work and live in.

Every year, thousands of Fidelity employees volunteer their time to help make a difference in
communities around the country. Whether they’re rolling up their sleeves to plant community
gardens, serving meals to the homeless, participating in the American Heart Walk, or tutoring
inner-city children, they’re passionate about change, and they’re achieving it every day. Do
you want to make a difference? At Fidelity, you can. Here’s how.
