PHILANTHROPY AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Contributing to the world at large.
We take a larger view of our place in the world. As a highly successful company, we are in a position to contribute to the larger picture beyond business and industry. We ask questions like:

"How can we make life better in the communities we serve?"

"How can we help to inspire those who are up-and-coming, educate those who are eager for knowledge and lift up those in need?"

Some of the programs and initiatives we fund and support include:

Civic, cultural, environmental and health and human services programs that strengthen our communities.
In many parts of the country, our primary contributions to health and human services are made through the United Way. In the Washington, D.C. area, they are made through Charities of Choice.

Causes of importance to our customers including the U.S. military and other government agencies.
We show our commitment to customer and constituent interests through our support of: Lockheed Martin Employees Care - a partnership with USO Operation Care Package, Armed Services YMCA, America Supports You, A Capitol Fourth and the National Air and Space Museum.

Volunteerism and community outreach.
While corporate philanthropy is a steadfast part of our nature as a company, our employees at all levels are active participants in our communities. They are involved in everything from food drives and homeless shelters' feeding programs, to fund-raising events for medical research and to environmental projects that enhance parks and other public spaces.

Over the past few years, our employees have logged nearly 1.9 million volunteer hours in their communities. In fact, we actively encourage employee volunteerism by promoting volunteer opportunities, and by making it easy for employees to participate. Our Volunteer Web site, called Lockheed Martin Volunteers, helps employees match their volunteer interests with community needs and local opportunities. Some of the ways in which we volunteer include:

• Holiday Gifts for Women and Children - Employees at Lockheed Martin in Greenville, SC, collected holiday gifts for more than 130 people associated with Safe Harbor, a local domestic abuse shelter that serves women and children in the area.
• Helping the Homeless - Every two weeks, an employee team from a different department at Lockheed Martin in Marietta, GA, serves a hot breakfast at a local homeless shelter. Employees work with shelter officials to prepare food and serve meals.
• Recycling Project - Lockheed Martin in Camden, AK, operates a program that promotes recycling and makes donations to non-profit organizations that serve the underserved.
• Historical Project - Employees in the Network of Volunteer Associates (NOVA) at Lockheed Martin in Valley Forge, PA, teamed with Valley Forge National Historic Park to create the Valley Forge Muster Roll database and Web page. The site provides the only known, free to the public, automated database of all of the soldiers who served at the Valley Forge encampment. Lockheed Martin volunteers designed the database and entered data from park records and documentation.
• Project Linus - Several Lockheed Martin locations participate in Project Linus, a national effort that gathers handmade blankets and afghans for children who are seriously ill or have been traumatized by a tragic event. For example, employees have made blankets for children whose parents were killed in Iraq.
• Serving Up Hope - Employees at Lockheed Martin in Cherry Hill, NJ, organize monthly HOPE (Help Other People Eat) lunches that raise money for charity. A 20-person committee organizes the program, and other employees volunteer as well. As many as 300 employees turn out to purchase and enjoy the lunches, which raise money for a different charity each month.
