About J.P. Morgan
We invest in our customers, employees, and communities around the world to break down barriers to opportunity and create an economy that works for more people. We combine our business and policy expertise, capital, and data to advance four universal pillars of opportunity: jobs and skills, small business expansion, neighborhood revitalization, and financial health. Despite all community volunteering globally having to transition to a virtual setting, over 8,000 employees volunteered close to 25,000 hours in 2020 in Asia Pacific.
J.P. Morgan’s Philanthropic Work in Malaysia
We focus our grants on workforce readiness programs for youths, taking steps to narrow skills gaps, integrating industry requirements into training curricula, and ensuring underserved youth have employment pathways into the country’s fast-growing industries. Our grantee SOLS 24/7 provided training to 100 underserved youths in solar energy, English, basic IT, and soft skills development in order to attain jobs in the solar energy industry. In addition, the firm renewed a partnership with MySkills Foundation with the aim to train 400 at-risk youth in electrical, plumbing, air-conditioning, welding, life management, and soft skills. We are also supporting MySkills to create new training modules on digital and entrepreneurial skills and pilot vocational training streams in the corporate secretarial and care work sectors.
