The charitable giving is part of Cboe's commitment to donating
an aggregate total of $500,000 to
five different non-profit organizations, in honor of its
50th anniversary milestone this year. Significantly, we
believe each chosen organization exemplifies one of Cboe's guiding
principles: Inclusive Collaboration, Active Transparency,
Competitive Team Spirt, Superior Service and Good Citizenship. Save
the Children reflects the Competitive Team Spirit guiding principle
and was nominated by Cboe's global associate base for its efforts
to bring people together, encourage teamwork and work toward a
common goal. This is the second 50th anniversary
donation following last month's $100,000 donation to the Alzheimer's
Association.
"Cboe has long strived to be an exemplary corporate citizen and
do its part in building a sustainable future," said Ed Tilly, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of Cboe Global Markets. "As Cboe continues to expand globally, our
dedication to the diverse communities we serve only deepens.
Recognizing the pressing need to protect and support children
worldwide, we are honored to join forces with Save the Children to
help create a brighter future for children across the globe."
Since its founding more than 100 years ago, Save the Children
has done whatever it takes - every day and in times of crisis - to
help children around the world reach their full potential. The
organization works to ensure children have a healthy start in life,
the opportunity to learn and protection from harm.
"Save the Children is grateful for this generous donation from
Cboe," said Luciana Bonifacio, Chief
Development Officer of Save the Children. "In the United States and around the world,
children are facing tremendous challenges from conflict and hunger
to lack of access to education and the climate crisis. Cboe's
support will help meet the urgent and long-term needs of children,
making a meaningful impact in their lives now and for years to
come."
Building on its mission to help people pursue a sustainable
financial future, Cboe also announced the expansion of Cboe
Empowers. The community engagement program, which provides
mentorship, scholarships and guidance to under-resourced students,
initially launched in Chicago in
2021 and has now expanded to support students in both Chicago and Kansas
City. This year, Cboe Empowers awarded full-ride
scholarships to five recipients in Chicago and two recipients in Kansas City.
