WHAT IS CITY GIVING DAY?                             City Giving Day   2021   4

A unique annual event that has
become a staple in the City’s
calendar, uniting us through charity
and community partnerships.
The City of London is a global leader in financial
and professional services, but not everyone
knows that it also invests significant sums in
communities and causes to change lives and
make a wider positive impact on society.

For companies, City Giving Day is an opportunity
to showcase their charitable and community
work, and let their staff and visitors know about
the difference they are making
and the lives they are changing.
