TD releases its 2012 Corporate Responsibility Report: Embedding Responsibility

TORONTO, March 8, 2013 /CNW/ - With a focus on our customers, building an extraordinary workplace, being an environmental leader and strengthening our communities, TD is committed to embedding responsibility in its approach to business.

Today, TD Bank Group released its annual Corporate Responsibility Report, titled Embedding Responsibility. The report complements TD's 2012 Annual Report to Shareholders, by disclosing TD's social, economic and environmental performance for the 2012 fiscal year. Here are some highlights:

  • Recognizing that financial literacy is an essential life skill, TD supports many financial literacy programs including the TD Bank WOW!Zone program, which has taught over 1 million American students about money matters since its inception in 1990.
  • TD planted over 40,000 trees in over 130 urban and rural communities during TD Friends of the Environment Tree Days, which is part of the TD Forests program, a major environmental initiative launched this year aimed at increasing protected forest habitat and growing forested areas.
  • In support of positive change in communities in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom, TD donated over $65 million to support various organizations including those with a focus on education and financial literacy, creating opportunities for young people and the environment.

The interactive report includes links to supporting websites, position statements and video content, and the new format supports TD's commitment to the environment by promoting paper reduction.  TD continues to advance its reporting with these additional features:

  • Scorecards that transparently report on our goals, progress and future performance targets;
