A Culture of Giving

Volunteerism and philanthropy are traditions at Presbyterian and hallmark qualities of our employees. From serving on statewide councils to improving healthcare policy to making free flu shots available to seniors, Presbyterian employees give time, expertise and donations to make our communities better places to live.

Hundreds of Registered Volunteers

In January 2006, Presbyterian inaugurated the Employee Volunteer Program to recognize the efforts of individual employees in the communities we serve. More than 300 employees registered in the first three months, and more than 120 organizations and events in fourteen New Mexico communities have been identified as volunteer opportunities for our employees.

Leadership for Local and National Organizations

More than 95 percent of Presbyterian's 43 senior leaders serve as volunteer board members or active members of the 90 local and national organizations listed below. Through these memberships Presbyterian employees take their passion and understanding for service excellence to help improve organizations that ultimately benefit New Mexico communities.

More Than $1 million in Annual Employee Contributions to United Way

Since 1993, Presbyterian employees have contributed more than $4.2 million to the United Way of Central New Mexico with contributions increasing every year. In 2006, Presbyterian's $1,006,000 campaign was one of the largest in New Mexico.

In addition, Presbyerian employees have contributed more than 250,000 pounds of food to Roadrunner Food Bank since 2000.
