The Joan D. Murray Volunteerism Award

EY is a leader when it comes to environmental sustainability, both within its own business operations and in its commitment to helping businesses, governments, and communities to address the climate crisis with innovative solutions. Through EY Ripples, the firm has a bold ambition to positively impact the lives of 1 billion people by 2030.

EY is committed to empowering its people to devote their time to SDG-focused projects that apply their skills and help them develop a deeper understanding of the challenges facing communities most impacted by the climate crisis. During EY Connect Day, more than 100 New Jersey-based EY volunteers have worked at Greater Newark Conservancy’s Hawthorne Avenue Farm and at the Urban Environmental Center in downtown Newark.
