Corporate Citizenship
At Freddie Mac, we focus our community efforts on homes for families. We're playing an important role in President Obama's Making Home Affordable program. And through our philanthropy, we also strengthen communities by promoting affordable housing and helping families stay in their homes and thrive. Together with the Freddie Mac Foundation, we are a major corporate giver in the Washington, D.C. region, investing in nonprofits that make life better for children and their families. Our corporate citizenship efforts also include other housing, volunteer, diversity, and employee programs.
