A Promise to Our Community

Through our giving programs, PIMCO, in tandem with our many nonprofit partners, seeks to effectively work toward solutions to some of the world’s greatest challenges. We also provide assistance to help nonprofits scale up and grow, including through our Board Placement Program. By way of our Board Placement Program, we identify and place talented PIMCO employees who are interested in dedicating their time and skills on nonprofit boards within the community.
 
A complete application includes the following information:
  • A copy of the organization’s budget for the current fiscal year

  • A list of corporate and foundation donors to your organization

Please note: Organizations applying to our Board Placement Program must operate without illegal discrimination on the basis of race, religion, gender, gender orientation, sexual orientation, age, national origin or disability.

PIMCO will make every effort to seek a qualified representative to serve on your organization’s board of directors. Completion of this application does not guarantee placement of a PIMCO employee on your board. Placement of a PIMCO employee on your board does not imply or guarantee financial support from the company.
