Deutsche Bank recognized by New York City for volunteerism
Deutsche Bank has been recognized by the City of New York as one of its most civically engaged businesses.
New York City has honored Deutsche Bank for its outstanding volunteer service. In its most recent celebration, the Mayoral Service Recognition Program included the bank as one of more than 70 private sector businesses that engaged a high proportion of its NYC employees in volunteerism.
The program, held annually in April during National Volunteer Month, is a citywide celebration that underscores the power of service to unite individuals and build a city where all New Yorkers can succeed. Individuals and companies engaged as volunteers, and the nonprofits they serve, are invited to a recognition ceremony held at Gracie Mansion.
According to NYC Chief Service Officer Laura Rog said, "Volunteering and service are the cornerstones of thriving and healthy communities. When we act in service to others, we are connected to a movement bigger than ourselves and united by love for our communities."
Deutsche Bank has received this honor since the program’s inception in 2015. In order to be recognized for the previous year’s activity, companies must have engaged 30% or more of its employees in volunteerism.
