- U.S. Chamber of Commerce Corporate Citizenship Center

- U.S. Green Building Council
While the nature of our engagement varies by organization, PNC strategically supports and affiliates itself with groups and coalitions that share a similar vision and set of values. As a company focused on diversity & inclusion, for example, we strongly believe in the Human Rights Campaign's (HRC) mission and joined the HRC's Business Coalition for Equality Act. This coalition consists of a group of leading U.S. employers that supports the Equality Act, federal legislation that would provide the same basic protections to members of the LGBTQ+ community as are provided to other protected groups under federal law.
Similarly, PNC's work with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Corporate Citizenship Center, which helps businesses drive positive environmental and social impacts, reflects our commitment to addressing environmental, social and governance issues and opportunities. In 2018, PNC Accessibility Officer Greg Pollock participated in a panel on the importance of disability inclusion at the Corporate Citizenship Center's annual conference.
Our partnerships with these and other organizations are mutually-beneficial, as they leverage PNC's unique resources to help drive positive impact while introducing us to valuable connections and best practices.
