Good Corporate Citizenship Corporate citizenship remains a key value for Boeing and its people — not only through charitable contributions to our communities, but also through employee outreach activities. Boeing people at all levels volunteer their time and talents to assist not-for-profit organizations and educational institutions, helping to build healthy communities where we live and work.
   Despite the economic downturn in 2002, employee contributions, corporate matching and company sponsorships remained strong. Through the Employees Community Fund, our people contributed more than $36 million, the same level as 2001, in spite of a decline in employee population. Our worldwide corporate charitable contributions (cash and in-kind) totaled more than $52 million. Company contributions and sponsorship programs supported more than 1,300 not-for-profit organizations throughout the world.

Going Forward We are managing the near-term with strong leadership and a focus on financial strength while we continue to capture key strategic wins, invest in new products and services, and build a solid technology base for our future. We remain focused on performance, cost management and on-target investment for long-term competitiveness. Our balanced aerospace portfolio, the strength of the Boeing brand and our business strategy continue to provide opportunities for long-term profitable growth far into the 21st century.
