Pro bono work, volunteering and employee fundraising

Part of UBM`s sustainability agenda is how we support the communities in which we work. UBM offers paid time off for volunteering, complimentary or discounted services for not-for-profit entities and matched-giving and payroll-giving schemes for fundraising and donations.

UBM runs two Community engagement events - NGO Brazil and NGO India - to promote collaboration between businesses, charities and governments.

UBM`s US Foundation has been linking business and society for 25 years, enabling employees to partner with business and community stakeholders in order to improve social conditions and provide value.

In 2014, the Foundation supported 275 nonprofits through volunteering and giving activities and $150,000 was donated by employees and UBM LLC Foundation matching. Examples of initiatives include:
