Since Capital Group’s founding in 1931, our associates have been deeply involved in their communities, beginning in Los Angeles and evolving globally as our organization has grown. Our associate-led, associate-driven charitable giving and volunteering programs, which we call Capital Cares, empower our associates to make meaningful contributions to the causes they are passionate about. Nearly all our giving, which over the past 10 years has totaled $288 million, is directed by our associates.
