Prudential's Global Volunteer Day, formerly known as Prudential's National Volunteer Day, originated in the company's resources area, which coordinates volunteer efforts by Prudential employees and helps address needs in specific communities. The first company-wide Volunteer Day was held on October 28, 1995, when 5,000 employees participated in 100 projects. Since then, the daylong event has enjoyed substantial growth. This year more than 20,000 Prudential Financial employees and their families and friends are expected to participate in hundreds of projects in 11 countries.Global Volunteer Day is shaped by employee interest. Prudential has found that its employees prefer to choose the partner organizations or issues that will be the focus of their volunteer efforts. Prudential's 18th Global Volunteer Day is Saturday, October 6, 2012.
