A MESSAGE FROM BMO HARRIS BANK
BMO Harris Bank has been a proud supporter
of Ravinia for over 40 years. Being part of the
Ravinia family gives BMO Harris the opportu-
nity to support the Ravinia mission of educating
and enhancing lives through the arts and ensur-
ing that great music is accessible to all.
At BMO, we have a proud 200-year legacy of
making tomorrow better. With a focus on col-
laboration, learning, and innovation, we work
with our community partners to achieve sus-
tainable solutions and shape the future together.
In 2017, BMO Harris Bank contributed $17 mil-
lion to charitable causes. Our employees pro-
vided financial education outreach to more
than 9,500 people and raised over $6.87 million
for United Way organizations and other chari-
ties during the annual BMO Employee Giving
Campaign.
Our commitment to act responsibly and think
about the broader impact of everything we do
is aligned with our sustainability principles and
our values. These core values of integrity, empa-
thy, diversity, and responsibility, as well as our
guiding principles around social change, finan-
cial resilience, community building, and eco-
nomic impact, are integral aspects of the way we
work with our community partners. We remain
committed to helping develop forward-thinking
solutions that benefit society as a whole.
We believe that corporate social responsibility is
about human connection and is a journey best
traveled in partnership with our community
partners, like Ravinia.
As both fan and friend, we are proud to help
play a part in producing one of Chicago’s most
fun and festive summer events. On behalf of our
thousands of employees, we join Ravinia in wel-
coming you to the 2018 festival season.
