The report, “Curiosity First,” demonstrates the ways in which
Fifth Third uses its curiosity to help improve lives and make a
difference in the communities it serves. The report features the
Company’s signature programs and illustrates the Bank’s efforts
within five major and inter-related areas of emphasis:
Consumers:
Fifth Third Bank is committed to improving lives. This is
illustrated through its industry-first initiative to help customers
find jobs and its L.I.F.E. (Lives Improved through Financial
Empowerment)SM Programs: Young Bankers Club®, Dave Ramsey’s
Foundations in Personal Finance®, Empower U®, and its two Financial
Empowerment Mobiles, or eBuses, which take financial education and
access to financial services directly into low- and moderate-income
communities.
Communities:
The Bank is collaborative in helping to create and sustain
vibrant communities. Local teams allow Fifth Third to stay close to
the issues facing its neighbors, helping to guide investments and
activities. Efforts include Bank-wide support of U.S. military and
their families, the 5-3 Impact initiative and philanthropic gifts
through the Fifth Third Foundation.
Businesses:
Fifth Third Bank actively supports businesses of all sizes with
smart financial solutions. These products and services ultimately
impact individual families and communities, as businesses fuel the
economy and provide employment opportunities.
Employees:
Employees are the ambassadors and embodiment of Fifth Third.
This section discusses the Bank’s commitment to its employees’
health and financial wellness, work around engagement and
inclusion—including Project SEARCH®, a school-to-work internship
program for individuals with physical and/or developmental
disabilities—as well as the positive impact employees have on
communities through their volunteer efforts, especially a Bank-wide
effort to fight hunger in May.

a more environmentally sustainable way. Progress in 2014 included
