Foundation and with businesses across the franchise. Through partnerships
with local, non-profit organizations, Citi continues to focus on areas that enable
us to leverage the strength of our company’s financial services expertise, global

MAKING COMMUNITIES BETTER
Citi is actively engaged in lending, investing and providing services to make communities better in
Florida. Our tremendous network of employees and resources enables us to make a real, positive
difference in people’s lives. Citi works strategically with international, national, and local non-profit
organizations to develop innovative solutions to meet the needs of underserved people.
Commitment to Community Reinvestment
Citi, through its banking subsidiaries, has made a significant commitment to
meeting both the letter and the spirit of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA).
The CRA was enacted in 1977 to ensure that banks help to meet the credit
needs of their entire communities, including low- and moderate-income
neighborhoods. Banks provide access to the financial services that permit
individuals and families to build assets and that enable the kinds of sustainable,
constructive changes — including stable homeownership and the development
of small businesses — that revitalize communities.
Citi’s commitment to ensuring access to financial products and services for lowand moderate-income families and communities involves long-standing
partnerships with key community groups and institutions. Our approach involves
providing financial products and services as well as opportunities to use those
products wisely. Our subject matter experts maintain knowledge of the
communities we serve, which enhances our ability to tailor our products and
services to the needs of those communities. Citi’s community development
offerings are provided to families, small businesses, communities and the
nonprofit groups and other institutions that serve them.
HOMEOWNERSHIP PRESERVATION
In response to the housing and mortgage crisis, Citi is diligently working with
leaders in industry, government and communities to develop innovative
programs and solutions to help homeowners in distress keep their homes. Citi
is an active member of HOPE Now, a cooperative effort among counselors,
investors and lenders to maximize outreach efforts to homeowners in distress.
Citi also is a national sponsor of the NeighborWorks Center for Foreclosure
Solutions, through which we are able to greatly magnify our outreach to at-risk
borrowers and first-time homeowners.
Citi established its Office of Homeownership Contact OHP: [email protected]
Preservation (OHP) in 2007, as the
OHP website: www.mortgagehelp.citi.com
foreclosure crisis began to emerge. OHP, a
unique partnership between Citi Global Community Relations and our Loss Mitigation
team, coordinates aggressive outreach to distressed borrowers; supports the training
of homeownership professionals in neighborhoods around the U.S.; and provides
guidance to Citi businesses involved in the development of work-out solutions for
distressed borrowers. In 2008, the OHP Team attended 106 events in 72 cities —
where team members met with close to 4,000 families — and worked with 18,240
borrowers to find foreclosure solutions.
Citi uses a variety of home retention work-out strategies toward creating a new
affordable and sustainable solution for the borrower. When it is not possible for the
borrower to maintain their home, Citi works with the borrower to minimize further harm.

TARP
The United States Government has made a
significant investment in major financial
institutions, including Citi, under the
Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). Citi
understands that TARP is about helping the
American people, and supporting U.S.
businesses and our communities. Our
responsibility is to put these funds to work
quickly, prudently, and transparently to
increase available lending and liquidity.
We also continue to focus on supporting the
U.S. housing market: Since the start of the
housing crisis in 2007, we have worked
successfully with approximately 440,000
homeowners to avoid potential foreclosure
on combined mortgages totaling
approximately $43 billion. Last year, we
kept approximately four out of five
distressed borrowers with mortgages
serviced by Citi in their homes.
The Government, on behalf of American
taxpayers, has invested in Citi. We have an
obligation to repay that confidence. We will
continue to work in partnership with the
Government to help put the economy back
on track.

25-Citi Tour: Miami
As part of Citi’s foreclosure prevention efforts, OHP launched the 25-City Tour, in
which 25 cities with higher delinquency rates were identified and targeted for
aggressive outreach to both borrowers at risk and non-profit homeownership
counselors engaged in foreclosure prevention outreach, counseling and education.
Through the Tour, OHP also offers a $50,000 funding opportunity to one non-profit in
each of the 25 cities with the most innovative approach to helping borrowers avoid
foreclosure.
In Jacksonville, Citi and the Citi Foundation partnered with Family Foundations
(formerly Consumer Credit Counseling) to offer help and provide resources,
information and education to local non-profit agencies that counsel borrowers on
post-purchase and foreclosure prevention, including loss mitigation and alternatives
to foreclosure. An invitation was then sent to local borrowers to speak with OHP
representatives to learn more about available options. Fifty-eight families were
reached as a result of this effort.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
As one of the world’s largest financial services companies, Citi and the Citi
Foundation continue to provide capital with a long-term view of the interests of our
clients and the communities in which we live and work.
In 2008, Citi Community Capital provided financing up to $2.8 billion for affordable
housing and community revitalization projects in locations around the country.
Citi Community Capital — Affordable Housing
Citi Community Capital (CCC) brings together the unmatched skill sets and
capabilities of the former Citibank Community Development and Municipal Securities
Division at Citi. CCC is the country’s leading lender in community development
construction finance and a preeminent investor in the industry overall.
In Florida, CCC continues to be involved in helping communities develop affordable
housing for low- and moderate-income residents. For example, CCC worked with
Carrfour Housing in Miami-Dade County to create single-room-occupancy housing
for formerly homeless people. In Fort Lauderdale, CCC worked with Artspace
Development and the Broward County Cultural Division to create 40 multifamily
units that combine living and working space for artists in the downtown area.
Economic Empowerment Forums
In 2007, Citi partnered with the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation to
inaugurate the Economic Empowerment Forum series, to help promote betterinformed financial decision-making and the availability of up-to-date financial tools
among African Americans and others. The Economic Empowerment Forum is a free
one-day conference where participants have the opportunity to learn about a wide
range of topics from leading financial experts, including debt management, poor
credit, saving and investment, creating wealth and more.
Economic Empowerment Forums were held in Miami, Philadelphia and Oakland,
California in 2007, and in Newark, New Jersey and Baltimore in 2008.

In 2004, Citi businesses and the Citi Foundation made an unprecedented, 10-year,
$200 million commitment to support and promote financial education programs
around the world. Citi established its Office of Financial Education to lead the effort.
Through this initiative, Citi will touch the lives of millions of people by supporting
financial education that will help them achieve their dreams. Citi helps individuals,
families, and entrepreneurs learn to manage money effectively, use credit wisely,
and benefit from financial services to achieve their personal and business goals.

Junior Achievement
Citi partners with Junior Achievement (JA) nationally and in many localities in the
United States and around the world to support its work helping young people to
reach their potential. JA provides hands-on, experiential programs that teach the key
concepts of work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy.
In Florida, Citi supports and actively participates in JA’s Banks in Action and BizTown
programs. Banks in Action, which was developed in partnership with Citi, teaches
high school students about the many facets of the banking industry. It introduces
students to the responsibilities of bankers and borrowers while illuminating the
challenges banks face in a competitive market. Citi volunteers provide the
instruction for this course, which is offered at various Florida high schools a number
of times each year. Recent sessions at Armwood, Brandon, Chamberlain and
Jefferson high schools in Tampa involved 17 Citi volunteers and reached more than
300 students.
The Citi volunteers deliver lessons on fundamental business and economic concepts
and discuss career possibilities in the banking industry with the students. The Banks
in Action curriculum covers topics such as how and why banks adjust savings and
loan interest rates; how resource allocation decisions are made among marketing,
research and development activities; and how banks make a profit.
As an integral part of the program, the students formed teams and got the chance to
implement their knowledge by participating in Junior Achievement’s established,
online virtual banking competition — which has local, regional and national rounds —
with the winning team designated as the "Bank of Choice." In Jacksonville, five
teams from Mandarin High School and Bartram Trail High School participated.
Students from Mandarin High School won the chance to compete in the finals in New
York and earned third-place honors.
In JA’s BizTown program, students spend six weeks learning how a local economy
works and then get to live what they’ve learned during a full day in a BizTown facility.
Junior Achievement trains schoolteachers to deliver the preparatory sessions, during
which the children learn a wide range of fundamentals — from how to write a check
to the roles played by various public and private institutions in a functioning economy
and the way those institutions work. In the BizTown facility there are offices, a bank,
merchants and even a mayor’s office. When the big day comes, the students fill the
positions in each of these entities and, with the guidance of Citi volunteers, spend
the day working to drive the BizTown economy. The students get to practice being
consumers too: they receive paychecks for their work, which are taken to the bank
and deposited, mostly into savings accounts but with some funds available for
purchases at the local shops.
In the Tampa area, Citi participates at JA’s BizTown facility in Hillsborough county.
There is also a facility in nearby Pinellas county.

Training the Trainers
Citi employees play a key role in the financial education programs with which Citi is
involved; they often serve as instructors for financial education classes offered by
Citi’s non-profit partners. To enhance the capacity for this involvement, Citi held a
―train the trainers‖ Financial Education Curriculum (CFEC) Workshop at Citigroup
Center Tampa in March 2008, in conjunction with the Florida Council on Economic
Education.
Programs like this enable Citi employees not only to participate directly in Citisponsored financial education offerings, but also to serve as financial education
resources for their families and communities. The Citi Financial Education Training
Program is also offered online to accommodate the schedules of as many
participants as possible.
EDUCATION
Citi and the Citi Foundation are committed to supporting education programs that
prepare students for college and careers.
Citibank Family Tech
The Citi Foundation is the ―Platinum Sponsor‖ of The Education Fund’s Citibank
Family Tech program, which provides computers and training in their use to lowincome public school students and their families. The program aims to help students
gain computer literacy skills that will help them in their academic work and in the job
market, and to provide parents with new, marketable skills.
Thirteen Miami-Dade County public schools are involved in the Citibank Family Tech
program, which also provides extensive instruction to teachers on incorporating
computer technology into classroom curricula. The teachers then teach computer
skills to their students and lead them in projects incorporating technology.
The Education Fund works to improve public schools in Miami-Dade counties by
accumulating public and private resources and redistributing them to schools and
students. The organization reports that, to date, approximately 8,200 refurbished
and Internet-ready computers have been given to parents and students through the
Citibank Family Tech program.
MICROENTREPRENEURSHIP
Microenterprise development has existed in the U.S. for decades, with the goal of
providing small loans (usually less than $35,000) as well as business training and
technical assistance to entrepreneurs. It is the link to business ownership for the
underserved, and a way for communities to create jobs.
Microenterprise Boost Program
Since 2004, Citi, in partnership with the Association for Enterprise Opportunity
(AEO), has supported the entrepreneur equity award project known as the Women
and Company Microenterprise Boost Program (MBP). The Association for Enterprise
Opportunity, a national membership association for the microenterprise development
industry, representing hundreds of microenterprise development programs across
the country, manages the program. Women and Company, a division of Citigroup
that provides access to financial education and resources for women, works with
AEO to implement and promote the program. In 2007, the MBP enabled 125 women
from low- and moderate-income communities to grow their businesses.

Fifteen local microenterprise organizations from around the country have been
selected to distribute the awards to women microentrepreneurs in their local
communities. In Miami, South Florida Urban Ministries (SFLUM) is the local
coordinator of the program.
In addition to the cash prizes, award recipients receive technical training, business
development guidance and assistance on growing their businesses and maximizing
their awards. The awards may be used for essential business development activities
such as marketing, technology purchases, website development, inventory, or
professional services.
Gina Ortela of SFLUM, who oversees the organization’s coordination of the MBP,
highlighted two ways in which the program has impacted the community: ―We have
always tried to develop partnerships; however, without real resources it was difficult to
unite the different microenterprise development agencies. Citi allowed us to share the
award with the most deserving clients in the partner agencies. This flexibility and the
multiyear funding have allowed us to develop the Economic Community Partnership
(ECP). The ECP brings all similar agencies together with governmental, educational
and business partners to serve small business owners in a larger, more innovative and
coordinated way. The MBP has also brought in new clients and helped us get some of
our existing clients to new levels. These results would not have been possible without
Citi’s support.‖
ARTS & CULTURE
VSA Arts Festival
Citi has supported the accessibility program at The Cummer Museum of Art &
Gardens in Jacksonville for 12 years. The Cummer Museum serves as the
Jacksonville affiliate of VSA Arts, an international, non-profit organization that
provides opportunities for individuals with disabilities to enjoy, learn from and
participate in the arts. Each year, Citi has been the title sponsor of the VSA Arts
Festival at The Cummer Museum, which has grown from a one-day event to four
days, with more than 1,000 volunteers involved. The festival provides hands-on art
experiences and the chance to view original works of art to more than 2,100 disabled
children. Students from Duval and surrounding counties rotate through ―art stations‖
in the museum's various galleries and gardens to create art projects, listen to live
musicians and storytellers, and learn, with opportunities for all participants, whatever
their level of ability.
VOLUNTEERISM
To support and encourage employee engagement, Citi launched the Office of Global
Volunteer Initiatives and its formal volunteer program in 2004. Every day, Citi
employees around the world contribute their time and talent to causes and
organizations they care about. Each year, many thousands of volunteer service hours
are spent making a difference in our local communities through projects and activities
with local non-profit organizations. Volunteer activities by Citi employees span a wide
range and include building homes, delivering food, cleaning parks, revitalizing schools,
teaching financial education, mentoring microentrepreneurs, as well as non-profit
capacity-building and advisory council/board service.
In Florida, Citi employees volunteered more than 33,900 hours during 2008.

Global Community Day
On a single day every year, Global Community Day (GCD), employees join together
in the nearly 100 countries where Citi works, to make a difference in their local
communities. In the three GCDs that have been held since the program was
inaugurated in 2006, more than 150,000 employees, friends and families participated
in thousands of volunteer projects in many hundreds of cities around the world.
Approximately 1,350 volunteers in Florida participated in 30 events around the state
on GCD 2008. In Jacksonville, nearly 300 employees helped with the 12 projects,
including building a Habitat for Humanity house; painting and landscaping at the
Mandarin Senior Center and Louis Dinah Senior Center; and raising money for
No More Homeless Pets at the PlanetFest Fall Art Festival benefiting military
families. A contingent of Jacksonville volunteers went to the I.M. Sulzbacher Center
for the Homeless to help with the Kids Fall Festival for children residing there. Other
Jacksonville projects on GCD included cleaning exterior walkways at the Clara
White Mission and a neighborhood planting and clean-up run by the Springfield
Preservation & Restoration Council.
Steve Klovekorn, Citi Center Tampa Site
President, volunteered at Hope Children’s
Home in Tampa on Global Community Day
2008.
In South Florida, nearly 350 volunteers participated in five different projects on GCD
2008, from painting the exterior of the Palm Beach Habitation Center in Lake Worth
to raising a roof on a Habitat for Humanity home in Liberty City, Miami. Broward
County enjoyed its best GCD turnout ever, as 125 volunteers there helped at Fort
Lauderdale’s Kids in Distress by entertaining children with activities as well as
helping to cleaning and organizing the facility. Some South Florida volunteers
painted the boardwalk that runs along the Miami Beach shoreline. Others helped
demolish walls to prepare for renovations at CF Caring Place in Miami.
In Tampa, approximately 700 Citi volunteers helped 14 nonprofit organizations with
projects that included constructing a basketball court at Steppin’ Stone Farm; taking
children bowling courtesy of Big Brothers Big Sisters; visiting with disabled
veterans at the Veterans Administration Hospital; and painting a Humane Society
clinic (and playing with the animals there). More than 260 Tampa volunteers took
part in the American Heart Association’s HeartWalk and raised approximately
$40,000 for that organization; others pedaled in the National Multiple Sclerosis
Society’s MS Ride benefiting multiple sclerosis research. Three local food banks,
two additional children’s organizations, the San Jose Mission, the Epilepsy
Services Foundation and Junior Achievement (JA) also received help from Citi
volunteers in Tampa on GCD 2008. At JA’s Biz Town, Citi volunteers led local fifth
graders through the activities of a typical business day.
March for Babies
Citi employees in Jacksonville have contributed to the March of Dimes for the past
five years. Each spring, volunteers raise pledges and then participate in the
organization’s annual March for Babies fund raising walk, to support its work in
preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. In 2008, more than 450
Jacksonville employees participated — making Citi the second-largest corporate
team in the Jacksonville walk — and raised $79,503.
