Wachovia’s Commitment to Women
Wachovia salutes the individual and collective achievements of women and embraces its long-standing commitment to women employees, suppliers, community partner’s customers and business owners. Nearly 70 percent of Wachovia’s employees are females, and building and sustaining a diverse workforce is one of Wachovia’s business imperatives. In addition, Wachovia ensures that a significant percent of its business is directed to female-owned businesses and nurtures national partnerships with women’s organizations.
Wachovia is committed to educating and empowering women customers as they make decisions affecting their financial health and wealth. The company is using an innovative, unified marketing strategy to develop relationships through special sponsorships and alliances supporting women. Wachovia's “Women With Wachovia” is an initiative intended to bridge the internal culture among Wachovia’s female employees with the external marketing, brand and business development opportunities for acquiring women as customers. “Women With Wachovia” brings together a group of 45 women and men from across the company. Wachovia’s goal is to serve as a friend concerned about the well-being of women from birth to retirement, and it concerns all aspects of life—not just finances

Wachovia’s Involvement in Frosted Pink
Frosted Pink (2007) and Pink with a Twist (2008) are ground-breaking events that will allow women and men, nationally, to obtain information, support and resources through an innovative and celebrity-powered program. The objective of both events is to empower, educate and encourage early detection and continued research towards advancing our outcomes with these cancers. This approach is in line with Wachovia’s commitment to educating and empowering women to take control of their financial health.
75 percent of women are the gatekeepers of healthcare in their family or household, so it is extremely relevant for Wachovia to endorse and support Frosted Pink and Pink with a Twist, given our holistic approach to women’s health and wealth. As we have listened to women through our research and outreach, we know that as a financial services provider, we must remain relevant and "real" to women’s life concerns. It is how we aim to be a genuine partner for them.
