Reliance Matrix Foundation

Giving Back to the Community

For more than a century, Reliance Matrix has strived to improve the quality of life, not only of its customers, but also of its employees and the communities in which they live. Since 1996, we have supported cultural and educational causes through generous funding of the Reliance Matrix Foundation (formally the Delphi Project Foundation), which seeks to positively impact underserved youth in Philadelphia.

Corporate Social Responsibility at Reliance Matrix

Corporate Social Responsibly (CSR) is a core tenet of our parent company Tokio Marine’s Good Company philosophy. For more than 25 years, the Reliance Matrix Foundation has been the pride of our CSR strategy at Reliance Matrix.

Adding to the Educational Paradigm

Reliance Matrix Foundation programs take place both during and after school, offering students a stimulating, safe and supervised place to gather. The programs provide students with a structured outlet to express themselves through art, dance, filmmaking, and other forms of creative expression. The foundation is committed to bringing exceptional arts experiences into the Philadelphia public schools. The Reliance Matrix Foundation is recognized as an Educational Improvement Organization by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development.

Lifelong Benefits

Since 1996, tens of thousands of teens have benefited from Reliance Matrix Foundation’s cultural outreach programs. These programs in both the visual and performing arts build self-esteem, enhance awareness of career opportunities in the Arts and help to develop critical thinking skills. In fact, recent research suggests that Arts education can improve student performance in intellectual and academic areas, including math and science.

Reliance Matrix Foundation Partners

Reliance Matrix Foundation partners with extraordinary, world-renowned cultural institutions such as The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Ballet and The Philadelphia Zoo, to introduce the arts to Philadelphia’s public school students. The foundation provides innovative arts education and career training programs that increase accessibility to the arts, promote cultural expression, and strengthen the fabric of the community.
