Hasbro Named to The Civic 50 for 14th Consecutive Year, Extending Unmatched Record of Corporate Citizenship Leadership

Key Terms

corporate social impact financial

Corporate social impact is the measurable effect a company’s actions have on people, communities and the environment, such as charity programs, workplace practices, pollution reduction or local hiring. Investors watch it because these actions influence a company’s reputation, legal and regulatory risks, customer loyalty and long-term costs—think of it as a company’s social and environmental footprint that can protect or erode future value.

employee volunteerism financial

Employee volunteerism is when workers give their time and skills to community projects or causes, often supported by their employer through paid volunteer hours, matching donations, or organized service events. Investors watch this because it boosts employee morale and retention, improves a company’s public reputation, and can be a measurable part of environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance—similar to a neighbor pitching in on a community cleanup, it signals a company is a responsible, engaged member of its community.

philanthropic giving financial

Philanthropic giving is the act of donating money, goods, time, or services to charitable causes by individuals, foundations or corporations. Investors care because these gifts resemble a company or donor redirecting resources away from immediate profit toward social goals, which can affect cash flow, tax obligations, public reputation and long-term strategy—much like a household choosing to budget for community support instead of extra savings. Philanthropy can signal values, reduce legal or social risks, and influence customer and employee loyalty.

nonprofit partnerships financial

A nonprofit partnership is a formal collaboration between a company and a charitable or mission-driven organization to share resources, expertise, or programs. For investors, these alliances matter because they can boost a company's reputation, customer loyalty and community access—like a business sponsoring a neighborhood project—while also creating modest costs or reputational risks; the partnerships rarely drive direct profits but can influence long-term brand value and risk exposure.

This marks the 14th consecutive year Hasbro has earned the distinction, the only company to be recognized every year since the program's inception in 2012.

The Civic 50 sets the national standard for corporate social impact, evaluating companies with annual revenues of at least $1 billion on the scale, sophistication and impact of their employee volunteerism, community investment and social impact strategies.

"Being recognized by The Civic 50 for the 14th consecutive year is an incredible honor and a testament to the passion of our employees and our enduring commitment to making a positive impact where we live, work and play.”
