Dedicated to empowering change for the society of today and generations of tomorrow
We’re not just a part of communities – we play an active role in helping to shape them. Wherever we are in the world, we create a culture of giving. And whether it’s through education or environmental conservation, by delivering basic needs or finding long-term solutions, we are passionate about making a difference.
Education
Education is a crucial tool for empowering change and enriching lives. We are dedicated to helping people from all walks of life reach their full potential. Our education initiatives aim to provide the knowledge and competencies to navigate the rapidly changing world and inspire personal growth. One of our priorities is financial literacy as financial skills are essential for a person’s independence. We are committed to supporting education through strategic partnerships in all regions.
Sustainability
For our own wellbeing as well as our planet’s health, it is essential we conserve and protect the natural environment. Our dedication to this goal inspires projects and partnerships around the world that help combat climate change, encourage biodiversity, protect endangered species and make cities greener. The initiatives we support target urgent local priorities: in Asia Pacific, we support people-centred environment conservation, empowering indigenous peoples and local communities as custodians of our most important natural environment and ecosystems. Alongside hands-on intervention we contribute to education initiatives that build a deeper understanding of the natural world.
Our People
Our people are the backbone of our commitment. They give their time, skills and expertise as volunteers. They support our education initiatives as mentors and coaches and help to implement effective responses to educational issues. They also support our environmental initiatives as volunteers and learn first-hand why intact ecosystems and biodiversity are so important for us all. They are donors and fundraisers too and we help them give more to causes close to their hearts.
