Company recognized for commitment to community
by Points of Light
TSYS (NYSE: TSS) announced today its recognition as one of
America’s most community-minded companies in The Civic 50, an
initiative that identifies and recognizes companies for their
commitment to improving the quality of life in the communities
where they do business. The survey was conducted by Points of
Light, the nation’s definitive experts on civic engagement.
“To receive this honor for the third time since 2013, is a
testament to our company, and our team members all over the world,”
said Troy Woods, chairman and chief executive officer, TSYS. “I’m
always amazed, every year, at the amount of time invested and the
involvement our team members have in their respective communities.
Last year, in the U.S. alone, our team members logged an estimated
75,000 hours of company sponsored volunteerism. This recognition is
because of their efforts, and an ongoing commitment by our company
to make a difference in the communities where we live and
work.”
The Civic 50 survey was developed in partnership with a
high-profile working group of researchers and industry thought
leaders. It evaluates companies on several criteria, including
the quantity and impact of financial and human resources applied to
civic improvement, how a company’s community engagement activities
support its business interests, and how a company measures the
social and business value of its community engagement programs.
“Since 2012, we have seen a notable shift in the survey results
in a direction that speaks to the commitment of American companies
to connect values of community service and civic engagement to the
culture and operating practices of their business,” said Jennifer
Lawson, executive director of the Corporate Institute at Points of
Light.
The survey was administered by True Impact, a company
specializing in helping organizations maximize and measure their
social and business value, and is the only survey and ranking
system that exclusively measures corporate involvement in
communities.
