We are pleased to announce that the 2011 FedEx Global Citizenship Report is now available for review and download. When we first started reporting in 2008, we envisioned an all-digital and print on demand platform. But, we were unable to do so at the time. As a result, we chose to publish our report in print, using small print runs, with a goal to transition to an all-digital and print on demand platform.

My FedEx colleagues and I sat at our table, awaiting the announcement of the winner of this year’s International Corporate Citizenship Conference 2012 Film Festival. With envelope in hand, the emcee paused and - in front of several hundred corporate citizenship practitioners - said: FedEx!

Every year the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship sponsors a film festival and invites corporations to submit a three-minute video showcasing their commitment to global citizenship. This year, FedEx submitted an inspirational video sharing with viewers the depth of our 29-year commitment to ORBIS International, a leading global blindness prevention organization.
