Corporate Employees Step Up to Help

Denver, Colorado

Giving to the community has become second nature for many of Newmont's Denver-based employees.

Corporate Employees Step Up to HelpStaff in our corporate accounting and tax departments – with help from other employees, family and friends – recently collected and delivered 50 C.U.R.E. Kits for Kids to young families in developing nations around the world. The kits are shoebox-sized packages of basic home healthcare and hygiene supplies such as pain relievers, sunscreen and antibiotic ointments.

For years, Newmont has partnered with Project C.U.R.E. and contributed funds to send pallets of medical equipment and supplies to developing nations, including Peru, Indonesia, Ghana, and, most recently, Haiti.

Other financial and accounting specialists volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, recently spending a weekend building townhomes in an underprivileged neighborhood in southeast Denver. They also support Junior Achievement initiatives, participate in cancer walks and volunteer at animal shelters.

"I think seeing that we are helping someone realize their dream of home ownership makes us feel good to be involved with it," said Monte Dean, senior accountant. "Volunteering here has increased because of the new [Leadership] Pipeline initiatives. It is easy to get sucked into the busy lives we lead, and I think this really allows us to pull back, give back and remember what is important."
