2021 Worldwide Giving Report

ExxonMobil's community investments are intended to address strategic local priorities where we do business around the world. We partner with governments, other companies and nongovernmental organizations to help support communities where we operate. We focus on community and business needs such as health care, education and economic development, and we consider each community's development goals when deciding how best to invest. We often participate in public­ private partnerships and engage with key stakeholders to help improve social and economic conditions.
