For Bank of America, corporate social responsibility (CSR) plays a key role in supporting the company's purpose to improve the financial lives of the customers, clients and communities it serves. "For us, responsible business practices are foundationall" said Andrew Plepler, Global Corporate Social Responsibility executive at Bank of America. "We've worked to integrate responsible policies, practices, products, services, governance and employee benefits across our company in order to drive sustainable growth." Partnerships in the public, private and nonprofit sectors that are committed to positive social and environmental change represent another example of how the company helps create positive impact. In the past year, Bank of America has expanded its Better Money Habits partnership with Kahn Academy to advance financial literacy; helped illuminate the need for an inclusive society through its support of Special Olympics; collaborated with Habitat for Humanity on a global build to increase affordable housing; and supported thousands of veterans and military families through hiring, housing and workforce development.
