Employees and contractors at our Brae platform add profitable production from the North Sea. Other core regions include the U.S., Canada and Equatorial Guinea.

Marathon supports non-profit organizations that focus on education and training, health and human services, and protecting and conserving natural resources, habitats and environments.
As part of our social investment strategy, we promote responsible community interactions and provide direction to operating units on building sustainable programs. We began training employees on community development guidelines and related tools in 2010.
Philanthropy is integral to Marathon's business and social investment strategies. Using stakeholder data, we evaluate innovative non-profit programs that align with our business goals, broad objectives and strategies.
Our focus on heart health demonstrates how Marathon links initiatives to strengthen outcomes. Our partnership with the American Heart Association (AHA) aids its mission of building healthier lives free from heart disease and stroke, major causes of death in the U.S. and Marathon's other western operating areas. We sponsor AHA fundraising events, interactive programs, the Go Red for Women campaign, Life's Simple 7 health assessments and a summer children's program.
To build on AHA's preventive initiatives, we support the online "Ask a Texas Heart Institute Doctor" program. This global forum connects leading heart doctors with people seeking detailed, expert information about cardiovascular disease.
Marathon also is helping broaden understanding gained in the Bioko Island Malaria Control Project about malaria and infectious diseases. In addition to funding a laboratory specialist from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, we are also supporting a Texas Children's Hospital physician with infectious diseases specialty training to be a continuing education/capacity building advisor. They will work in EG for two years to provide technical assistance and share knowledge and lessons learned with the BIMCP and their institutions.
We frequently collaborate with business partners, non-profits and others on social investment programs. Along with one of our partners in EG and the Gulf of Mexico Foundation, Marathon is working on a proposal for the development of an artificial reef program for the nation and people of EG.
The partners would provide resources to assist the government in developing a fisheries management program and ecotourism industry. This program would give EG an opportunity to enhance and protect its abundant natural resources.
Employee-driven Books for Bioko started in 2004 to collect supplies for three schools on Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea. By 2010, seven schools received books, supplies and materials purchased through employee contributions. Marathon helps with logistics, transportation and distribution of donated goods. Annual activities also include a children's art contest and the Awarding Excellence program.
Awarding Excellence rewards students for their academic achievements at the end of their school year. The program builds an appreciation for education on Bioko Island through an annual celebration that involves students, parents, teachers, directors and ministry officials. At the end of the 2010-2011 school year, more than 250 students received certificates, backpacks and notebooks recognizing their academic achievements.
Marathon’s commitment to the community is deeply rooted in our core values. Our employee-run Books for Bioko program collects supplies for schools in Equatorial Guinea.
