GARBAN INTERCAPITAL
Greed Is Good –
For Charity
 ARBAN
INTERCAPITAL, the world’s leading money and securities brokerage
firm, is challenging conventional means of corporate giving. For the
eighth year, it has devoted one day in December wholly to charity.
The company donates an entire day’s revenue and commissions to
designated charities.

December’s amount exceeded the previous
year’s contribution of $3.4 million.
“Garban has made it a priority to include our
employees in the important decisions and activities of the firm,”
said managing director Lisa Nelson.
“We’ve found that out annual Charity Day
has a measurable impact on employee morale. There is no doubt that
employee involvement has been the key to our charitable success.”
As more than 700 Garban employees work and live
in New York, the $2.5 million raised here were given to four local
charities, carefully chosen with input from employees.
“Studies indicate that corporate employees
are more community minded than ever,” Nelson said.
Charity Day certainly proves it.
