Transforming our communities

People around the globe have depended on Jeppesen services for safe

and efficient transportation for over 80 years.

Each year, Jeppesen conducts a community needs assessment to deter-

mine where our grant dollars will have the greatest impact. We look for

organizations that promote innovation and introduce new voices and per-

spectives to the community.

As the company has grown globally, we have also expanded our philan-

thropic goals. Global corporate citizenship is one of our core values. It is

as integral to the company as our information solutions. This report sum-

marizes our company’s global community relations efforts during 2016.

Grant guidelines: We adhere to Boeing‘s guidelines in making charitable grants. Community needs

and detailed knowledge of our communities allows us to partner with community

organizations to achieve local strategies, challenging them as well as ourselves to

innovate, align and collaborate towards our common goals in our four focus areas.

All requests for support must align with one or more of our focus areas and objec-

tives. The four focus areas are:

Arts and Culture community support primarily leveraged through sponsor-

ship opportunities.

Education focus on primary and secondary STEM (science, technology, en-

gineering and math) education to support need, competitive workforce and strong

communities.

Environmental education aimed at changing behavior and conservation and

restoration in support of current environmental needs.

Health and Human Services programs which directly support individuals,

particularly veterans, in becoming economically self-sufficient through workforce

readiness, job placement and access to health services.

In addition to cash donations, Jeppesen also provides sponsorship

dollars to establish, maintain and enhance a business relationship to promote our

image, brand or reputation.

Scholarships for aviation-related organizations allow us to help students with their

education.

Jeppesen also provides in-kind donations of our products and services to aid hu-

manitarian organizations.

How to apply for a grant To apply for a cash do-

nation or in-kind dona-

tion of products or ser-

vices, organizations

must complete the

application on

Arts & Culture We invest in programs that promote participation in arts and cultural activities and

experiences at our sites around the globe.

The San Jose office sponsored a “Downtown Door” in the City of San Jose school

artwork project. Otherwise boring, blank doors (such as utility doors) are trans-

formed by local students who have developed their skills and interests by compet-

ing to have their art displayed. The doors also enhance the urban experience for

all who live, work and visit downtown San Jose. San Jose

The Jeppesen Poland office has always taken corporate citizenship very

seriously, and this year their focus has been on helping the city celebrate local

culture. The office recently sponsored a public mural inspired by the

beautiful history of Polish pre‐war aviation and design.

The artwork, by well-known Polish artists, Rafał Roskowiński and Prof. Jacek

Zdybel, is displayed on one of the apartment blocks in Zaspa, Gdańsk. The

work depicts one of the key figures of the art world, Tamara Lempicka, a

Polish art deco artist who is exhibited all around the world. The aircraft

accompanying her in the sky is the PZL.37 Los (English: Moose), a Polish twin-

engine medium bomber, used by the Polish Air Force during WWII. It is a

striking recognition for the city where Jeppesen employees live and work. Gdansk

Stowarzyszenie “Przyjacio Muzyki” gives support to young musicians help-

ing them to start their artistic careers, fostering artistic contact between artistic

centers in Poland and abroad, (including music, dance, art), and making participa-

tion in artistic events possible for young people. Gdansk

Safety training in New York

Education We focus on primary and secondary STEM (science, technology, engineering and

math) education to support the need, competitive workforce and strong communi-

ties.

Shades of Blue is a non-profit educational organization that has dedicated itself

to mentoring, tutoring, counseling and arranging internships and employment op-

portunities for students that want to pursue careers in science, technology, engi-

neering and math (STEM).

The organization was conceived and created by a group of airline pilots, educators

and business people who have an interest in aviation and aerospace and want to

help introduce students to the opportunities available in the field of flight.

Jeppesen has supported this organization since its inception with cash donations

as well as in-kind donations of our products and services. The items are used in

their ground school and flight training program. They work with the students to

help them pass their FAA private pilot’s written exam. Denver

In 2007, Barrington Irving set a Guinness World record by becoming the youngest

person and only African American to ever fly solo around the world. He built his

own plane, made his historic flight, graduated magna cum laude from an aeronau-

tical science program and went on to found a dynamic educational nonprofit. Then

he turned 28.

That nonprofit, Experience Aviation, seeks to boost the number of youth in avia-

tion and other science and math related careers. Jeppesen proudly supports

Barrington’s dream with financial aid as well as services for his various programs.

New York safety focus

On October 12th, the NY

office practiced emergency

office evacuation facilitated

by the building firefighter.

Reinforcing awareness of

how and where to proceed

in the event of fire or active

shooter incident.

Red Cross recertification

for CPR, AED and choking

response (abdominal

thrusts) was successfully

completed by seven

Jeppesen NY staff. Coinci-

dentally the instructor was

also a Delta employee

whose full time job is doing

aircraft maintenance. The

team enjoyed a few laughs

while practicing the im-

portant lifesaving maneu-

vers. Practice makes for

quicker action when

minutes count. New York

Environmental Environmental education aimed at changing behavior and conservation and resto-

ration in support of current environmental needs.

The Guadalupe River park is only a short walk from our San Jose office so it’s the

perfect spot for a volunteer activity. The team worked in Arena Green, which is

right next door to the SAP Center where the Sharks ice hockey team play. It’s a

very visible spot.

Last year we spent some time cleaning and varnishing all the benches in the park.

Fortunately for California, but unfortunately for us, it was the only rainy day we’d

had in a little while. Therefore they had us cleaning the covered children’s carou-

sel. The carousel has been closed for some time due to budget cuts but they are

hoping to get funding for it from the San Jose Sharks. It needed to be spruced up

ready for inspections. San Jose

Boeing’s Global Month of Service (GMOS), held every July, demonstrates

how employees can play a significant role in our global communities beyond our

performance as a corporation. Every year thousands of employees around the

world give their time and talents to support hundreds of projects that help commu-

nities thrive. This year, Jeppesen employees from Denver teamed up with their

Boeing colleagues from Colorado Springs and Aurora to build a high priority sec-

tion of the Colorado Front Range Trail (CFRT) near Larkspur.

The GMOS team joined Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado and members of The

Mission Continues. This organization encourages and aids volunteerism by veter-

ans.

The vision of the CFRT is to create a multi-purpose trail from Wyoming to New

Mexico, along the Front Range of Colorado. Once complete, the 876-mile trail will

connect 15 cities and 14 counties, as well as scenic landscapes, cultural and his-

toric points, parks, open spaces, and other attractions. To date, over 270 miles of

the CFRT have been finished. Denver

which we live and work here in Colora-

do. In partnership with VOC, we can

ensure our state remains as naturally

beautiful tomorrow as we see and

experience it today.” Volunteers for

Children and parents

work together to

learn, earn and serve

the community.

Sunday Friends, a Califor-

nia non-profit, was founded

in 1997 by the wife of an

employee at the San Jose

office.

She was concerned about

the lack of awareness

among high school students

of different cultures, races

and lifestyles, including her

own young teens.

Not fully understanding

what help was needed, she

began by having her chil-

dren interact with the chil-

dren in a shelter: playing

games, drawing and read-

ing. The children in the shel-

ter were reluctant at first to

participate, but as they con-

tinued to return each Sun-

day they slowly built rela-

tionships and trust.

The organization

“empowers families to break

the generational cycle of

poverty by fostering positive

development in children

while educating and guiding

parents to support their chil-

dren’s life success.” San

Jose

Health & Human Services The programs which directly support individuals, particularly veterans, in becoming

economically self-sufficient through workforce readiness, job placement and access to

health services.

A team of volunteers from Jeppesen Montreal spent a few hours helping to prepare for

and serve the evening meal at the Old Brewery Mission. This was a great opportunity

to work together as a team, as well as a chance to get to know those who volunteered

at the centre day in and day out, showing their acts of kindness. The Old Brewery Mis-

sion does great work for homeless people in Montreal, and we were glad to have a

chance to play a small part.

“For 125 years, the Old Brewery Mission has provided emergency services to all those

who have knocked at our door. In addition to meeting immediate basic necessities, the

Mission continues to develop and oversee long-term solutions, from mental health pro-

grams to social housing initiatives that help men and women re-integrate back into

society.“ Montreal

Our San Jose colleagues annually support the Second

Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara and San Mateo

Counties who provide food for those in need in their

community. They are currently serving 250,000 people

per month. They are able to provide enough food for

two meals with every dollar donated. San Jose

Health & Human Services continued

Our colleagues at the New York office are proud supporters of the House of Hope

charity.

House of Hope is a non-profit organization whose vision is to become a bridge of

hope that provides life changing assistance to individuals and their families. They

seek to meet immediate needs of our local community through providing food,

clothing as well as coats and blankets during the winter months. New York

Project C.U.R.E. (Commission on Urgent Relief and Equipment), based in

Centennial, Colorado, is the largest provider of donated medical supplies and

equipment to developing countries around the world.

Due to it’s proximity to our Denver headquarters, teams looking for a volunteer

opportunity chose Project C.U.R.E. Denver

The main purpose of Gdanski Klub Sportowy is to promote basketball and physi-

cal activity among children, adolescents, adults, seniors and their families. The

program is designed to give under-served kids in Gdansk the chance at a fit life-

style and promote teamwork that is necessary to achieve success. Gdansk

Health & Human Services continued

The Montreal team once again participated in the annual Polar Bear Plunge. This is a

fundraising activity organized to benefit Special Olympics Québec.

The goal is to collect a minimum of $50 per diver, but our team of six brave divers raised

$690, and they plan to do it again next year! Montreal

Pilots N Paws is a charitable organization who through the help of general aviation

volunteer pilots transport rescue animals by air free of charge. They provide a user

friendly website communication venue between those that rescue, shelter and foster ani-

mals and pilots and plane owners willing to assist transporting the animals. They also

promote awareness of animal overpopulation and implement education programs to end

this problem in the future. Denver provides services to help defray the cost of the flights.

This year, Denver employees had the opportunity to assist our commu-

nity during the Thanksgiving holiday. The Jeppesen Engagement

Team (JET) purchased items for House of Hope (women and chil-

dren's shelter), Humane Society of the South Platte (dogs and cats)

and the Denver Rescue Mission (men’s shelter).

Employees “purchased” the socks, shampoo, canned dog and cat

food, diapers and other necessities. The funds were then used to pur-

chase additional items. Denver

Health & Human Services continued

According to the Food Bank of the Rockies, one in seven Coloradans worry where

they will find their next meal – nearly half are children. They provide food for more

than 411,000 people annually. They do this by distributing 131,000 meals each day

through more than 500 hunger relief partner agencies and direct service programs.

The Food Bank is one of the largest hunger relief organizations in the Rocky Moun-

tain region. Thanks to donations, 96 cents of every dollar received goes directly to

food distribution programs.

We delivered 26 boxes of food to the food bank. This totals 800 pounds of canned

goods, cereals, toiletries, paper towels, pet food and diapers. Denver

In an effort to meet the basic needs of neighbors in need, Project Angel Heart pre-

pares and delivers nutritious meals, at no cost, to food-insecure critically-ill Colora-

dans. Each week they prepare, package and deliver over 5,500 meals to more than

1,100 people throughout Denver and Colorado Springs. Denver

Denver employees have supported the annual Backpacks for Kids school supply

drive for the past six years. This year several groups purchased all the notebooks,

pens, pencils and backpacks and then “sold” the filled backpacks to employees.

The drive helps kids whose families cannot afford basic school supplies get a good

start in school. The filled backpacks were donated to Colorado UpLift. Denver

Donations for kids in Gdansk

Ronald McDonald House volunteers

Health & Human Services continued

During the holiday season, the team in Gdansk decided to support Fundacja Hos-

picyjna (Hospice Foundation). The organization has a program that assists

children surviving the loss of a loved one.

The team sold refreshments made by employees and collected over 3000 zlotych

to purchase gifts for the children at the hospice. Gdansk

Also during the holidays, members of the Finance & Supplier Manage-

ment team donated over $100 worth of household items and gift cards to

Ronald McDonald House in Denver.

In addition, they decorated the facility for Christmas and brought home-

made Christmas cookies to share with the staff and guests. They moved

all of the decorations and trees from the basement spreading them out

over three floors.

Ronald McDonald House provides comfortable, low-cost housing to out of

town mothers and fathers needing to be near their hospitalized children.

Business Sponsorships

Craig Hospital in Denver is a world-renowned rehabilitation hospital that exclusive-

ly specializes in the neuro-rehabilitation and research of patients with spinal cord

injury (SCI) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Craig is a not-for-profit, free-

standing, national center of excellence that has treated more than 31,000 patients

with SCI and TBI since 1956.

In 2011, a team of Jeppesen and Craig employees met to discuss the possibility of

providing patients’ and their families a chance to experience the freedom and thrill

of aviation, and to see the world from a different view. A view from the sky. The

project has been so successful that to date there have been 21 CraigFlight

Missions.

The planes and pilots for the event are members of the Jeppesen Employees Fly-

ing Association (JEFA) and the ground crew are employees and family members.

Business Sponsorships continued

Business sponsorships have given us the opportunity to support worthwhile organiza-

tions with a cash donation and in some cases, volunteer opportunities for our employ-

ees.

In addition to CraigFlight Mission, we have been the title sponsor of Challenge Air for

Kids & Friends Fly Day in Denver for the past seven years. The number of kids

participating has grown through the years with 75 kids flown this year.

Challenge Air was created to change the perception of children with special needs

through the gift of flight. Since 1993, they have been committed to making a difference

in the lives of children with special needs. With a network of 3,500 volunteers nation-

wide, they continue to grow through events called Fly Days.

“By eliminating the belief that they are limited, the children can grow to their full poten-

tial. They are given the opportunity to find courage within themselves and build in are-

as where they lack self-esteem. Challenge Air provides an unforgettable growing expe-

rience that opens the door to possibilities while allowing the children to see that if they

can fly a plane, they can do anything.” Denver

A very happy Challenge Air co-pilot

“Jeppesen’s contribution

helped Challenge Air fly 75

kids with special needs and

their families. It was a won-

derful day.

Your support ensures that

resources are available for us

to provide this experience to

a child with autism who just

might speak his first words in

the airplane, a child with spi-

na bifida dream of becoming

a pilot or a child with severe

cerebral palsy feeling the gift

of flight.”

Employee Volunteerism & Charitable Drives

In conjunction with Earth Day, a team of Jeppesen volunteers provided general

landscaping outside a local women’s shelter, including sweeping, raking and trim-

ming bushes.

According to Wendy Forbes, “It was a really great opportunity and honestly, there

are no words when it comes to how much this particular non-profit deserves our

support. Wonderful pick for venue and community organization – they are an

amazing group of people and their mission is heartbreaking, but so powerful.”

“There was a lot of work to be done, and I think many of us would have liked to do

more… (the lawn went unmowed and that drove several of us crazy!) It’s a re-

markable place and it was a privilege to help them even for so short a time,” said

Dave Feroe. Denver

In past year’s our Denver employees participated in the Special Olympics Plane

Pull. For the second year we decided to test our endurance and team up for Muck-

Fest to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.

A group of us here at Jeppesen formed a team to run in the fun mud and obstacle

5k. No special training was required. All you needed was a pair of sneakers and a

sense of humor. The team had a blast as we took on obstacles and pits, trenches

and craters full of mud. The event is built for laughs, but we’re also on a serious

mission: to bring us closer to a world without multiple sclerosis. Denver

Employee Volunteerism & Charitable Drives continued

For the past 13 years, Jeppesen employees have generously supported The Betty

Fund’s annual toy drive in support of Santa’s Workshop at Fort Carson. Our military

families often need a little extra help to celebrate the holiday season and our dona-

tions are much appreciated.

For the sixth year, Jeppesen employees “adopted” families at Fort Carson Army Base

in Colorado Springs during the holiday season. Twelve teams purchased toys,

clothes, books and games for 14 families. Typically, the parent only requests a few

items for their child, however, the joy of Christmas is giving a gift to someone else.

Our teams made sure the kids’ received the items from their Santa list, but also pro-

vided gifts for the parents. In addition to purchasing the gifts, teams got together and

wrapped the gifts. This event is truly the highlight of the holiday season at Jeppesen.

Denver

Twenty five colleagues in Sweden took part in Blodomloppet, a 5k/10k walking/

running charity event in Slottsskogen. This purpose of the event is to draw attention to

the importance of blood donation, whether you are a donor or not. Goteborg

“Words cannot express how

thankful we are for what you

have done to help our family

this Christmas. I am usually the

one who gives to others, but

this year had to step back and

allow others to do for us.

You helped make this an extra

special Christmas with the over-

whelming outpouring of love

and support for our family. “

Thank you so very much!

Employee Volunteerism & Charitable Drives

We built 15 bikes and decorated the helmets which go with them. The bikes were provided

by “Turning Wheels for Kids”- an organization that provides bikes for kids from low income

families with a focus on preventing childhood obesity. We ‘buy’ the bikes from them to build,

and pay a ‘fee’ per participant. The ‘fee’ goes back to build other bikes for the community, so

it is a double donation! Our particular bikes were donated to “Hope Services”- another non-

profit organization that helps developmentally disabled children that we work with. San Jose

The mission of the Experimental Aircraft Association’s (EAA) Young Eagles program is to

provide a meaningful flight experience—free of charge—in a general aviation aircraft for

young people between the ages of 8 and 17. Flights are provided by EAA members world-

wide. The Jeppesen Employees Flying Association (JEFA) has been participating in Young

Eagle events for the past several years.

In addition to the monthly flights, JEFA provides the Young Eagle experience to the children

of employees once a year. This year we gave 30 kids the flight of their life! Denver

In October, reports of the devastation from Hurricane Matthew dominated the headlines. Ac-

cording to MSN, Matthew pummeled Haiti causing at least 10 deaths and six more in the

Dominican Republic and other parts of the Caribbean. The powerful Category 3 storm then

headed toward the southeastern United States where authorities were readying for the

storm’s devastating combination of winds and rain. The American Red Cross launched a

major emergency response operation.

Jeppesen’s global workforce once again proved they are caring and very generous. Dona-

tions to Hurricane Matthew relief totaled $1,460, which was matched by Jeppesen.

Scholarships

Scholarships for aviation-related organizations allow us to help students with their

education.

Jeppesen has contributed to the Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund since its

inception in 2001. Jason Dahl was a pilot on Flight 93 that crashed in Pennsylva-

nia during the attacks of 9/11.

This fund was created in memory of Captain Jason Dahl, who lived in Denver,

with respect toward all victims of the events of 9/11/2001. It supports future gener-

ations of pilots and young people yearning to fly, through the award of aviation

scholarships annually.

“Jason never accepted less than the best. We remain dedicated to ensure that the

Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Board and the growing community of scholarship

winners reflect this expectation of excellence.” Denver

he Regional Aviation Association of Australia (RAAA) has offered the Jeppesen

Avionics and Jepsen Pilot scholarships for numerous years. The scholarships are

awarded to encourage the continuing education of the recipients.

RAAA promotes the maintenance of a safe and viable regional aviation industry in

Australia. Australia

Chapter 301 promotes and culti-

vates the mission of the Experi-

mental Aircraft Association:

"To serve all of aviation by foster-

ing and encouraging individual

participation, high standards and

access to the world of flight in an

environment that promotes free-

dom, safety, family and personal

fulfillment. " Denver

In-kind Donations

In addition to monetary donations to non-profit organizations, Jeppesen provides our

products and services to humanitarian concerns every year.

We provide trip kits to pilots flying people in need of free air transportation for medical

and humanitarian purposes. These organizations remove the transportation burden

from patients so they can get to specialized medical treatment not available to them

locally. Many of these patients do not have access to conventional transportation or

are too ill to drive or fly commercially.

By providing our charts free of charge, the pilots have one less expense and are able

to provide their service to those in need.

In addition to charts, we donate pilot training materials to organizations using aviation

to teach youth math and science skills. The goal is not always to train a future pilot,

which is an added benefit, but to reach out to kids who might need an extra incentive

to stay in school and graduate.

Jeppesen provided 35 student pilot kits for use by the students at the annual Black

Pilots of America, “ Les Morris” Summer Flight Academy.

This program seeks to excite young people about flying and their potential as a partici-

pant in the aviation industry. They help the students translate this excitement to aca-

demic studies which will form the foundation of a productive career. Denver

In-kind Donations continued

The Mile High Chapter of Tuskegee Airmen, Inc., was established in 1973 by War-

Jeppesen has provided the students with our Private Pilot Kits for numerous years

to assist them in their learning. Denver

Our charts have been an integral part of the annual Air Race Classic.

This race is the main event of women's air racing. The pilots range in age from 17

to 90 years old and come from a wide variety of backgrounds including students,

teachers, doctors, airline pilots, business owners, professionals and air traffic con-

trollers. Each race team must consist of at least two women pilots, must fly VFR

during daylight hours only and are given four days to make flybys at each enroute

timing point and then land at the terminus. The race route, which changes each

year, is approximately 2,400 statute miles in length. with 8 or 9 timing points.

Over the years, our paper charts have transitioned to many of the participants

using our digital products. Denver

The Flagship Detroit Foundation is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the DC-3.

Their goal is to continue to maintain the oldest flying DC-3, Flagship Detroit, as a fly-

ing tribute to the airplane that made passenger travel a viable form of public transpor-

tation and to honor the airline employees, past and present, who have made air travel

the safest form of transportation in the world.

Although this is a historic airplane, it has been outfitted with modern day avionics. We

provide the electronic database for the Detroit’s navigation systems. Denver

LeRoy Homer was one of two pilots aboard United Airlines Flight #93 on the morning

of September 11, 2001.

The LeRoy W. Homer, Jr. Foundation increases awareness of aviation careers and

encourages and supports young men and women who wish to become professional

pilots by offering flight instruction scholarships for private pilot certification and also

provides awareness of aviation opportunities to school-aged youth.

Jeppesen is proud to support this organization by donating online ground school cours-

es to help the organization engage with school age children who are too young to ap-

ply for the flight scholarship program. Denver
