Our Communities Matter PNC’s strength reflects the vitality of the communities where
we do business, so we support important community development and philanthropic efforts.
In 2010, PNC spent more than $50 million across 15 states and the District of Columbia to
encourage home ownership and economic development and to partner with community-based
organizations.
Our signature cause, PNC Grow Up Great, which prepares young children for success in school
and life, enters its seventh year in 2011. Our employees have volunteered 170,000 hours to
this effort. Building on our success, this year we will launch Financial Literacy for Preschool
Children which focuses on the concept of sharing. Our partner in this program is Sesame
Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street.
PNC advanced its leadership in green building in 2010 as well. The completion of our new
Washington, D.C. regional headquarters, PNC Place, marked PNC’s 100th LEED certification
from the U.S. Green Building Council and our first Platinum-level
certification. To date, PNC has 116 certifications for leadership in
energy and environmental design, and has more newly constructed,
LEED-certified buildings than any company on Earth.
Building a Great Company At PNC, we strive for excellence,
and we know that we must prove ourselves every day. Over the past
two years, we believe that we have delivered exceptional performance.
Thanks to the hard work of our management team and our employees, we now have more
opportunities than ever before.
To be successful in the future, it will not be enough to recognize or respond to change; the
leaders will be those companies that anticipate and embrace change and respond with innovative
products and services. I believe the people of PNC have those qualities and capabilities, and
I look forward to working for you as we continue to build a great company.
Sincerely,
James E. Rohr
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
To be successful in the future, it will not be
enough to recognize or respond to change;
the leaders will be those companies that
anticipate and embrace change and respond
with innovative products and services.
I believe the people of PNC have those
qualities and capabilities...
