ExxonMobil 2015 Worldwide Giving Report
Since our initial investment in pro bono legal services in 1917, ExxonMobil’s U.S. program has evolved from a grassroots effort to a fully defined program, and our attorneys give hundreds of people free legal support each year. In 2015, 171 volunteers in the United States, including 137 attorneys and 31 support staff, devoted 3,624 hours to pro bono service. These services included helping veterans, children, domestic violence survivors, immigrants and citizens with various legal issues, including family law matters, tax issues and will preparation. Our U.S. law management sponsors a pro bono committee in Houston that includes representatives from the various practice groups. The global stories section of our website has additional examples of our employee volunteerism activities around the world. “As lawyers, we have a duty to give a voice to those who don’t have one. It seems so simple to share something you already know, but it’s a big deal to the clients we help.” Susan Barrington Sanchez Co-coordinator of ExxonMobil’s pro bono committee, 2010–2015
