We believe in an inclusive society. For us, helping our clients succeed – and succeeding ourselves – brings with it a social responsibility. A duty towards those who may be less fortunate. Because business should have the power to change everyone’s lives.
That’s why we’ve embedded giving into everything we do.
And the best part? You don’t have to do anything. Simply by choosing to work with us, you’ll automatically make giving a part of what you do too.
Here is how we do it:
Hunger starves people of hope and opportunity. It limits potential in the classroom and everywhere else. Our solution is to partner with charities that provide a basic education to the children that need it most.
More than one in ten children living in the developing world never get the chance to go to school. Securing access to basic education for all is one of our main aims.
Feeding young minds
Our work translates into better opportunities for young people’s education. Research has shown that malnutrition can restrict brain development and lead to impaired memory and learning ability. By teaching families about the nutrients they need to live healthy and prosperous lives, and enabling them to diversify their diets, we can help children chart a better future for themselves and their families.
Quality education
Our education work focuses on teacher education, community involvement in education, classroom construction, development and supply of materials. In Tanzania, for example, providing access to clean water in schools means children are healthier and happier at school. Safe water also means safer food to eat.
Improving school attendance
Many children come from families who struggle to feed themselves. They are forced to sell land and livestock to buy food. They have to cut back on education and often children are forced to work instead of going to school. By providing these families with resources, such as agricultural training, tools and their own livestock, they can grow the food they need and their children can return to education. This is one of the key ways they can lift themselves out of poverty.
Access for all
Girls, children living in slums, orphans, working children, children belonging to minority groups, children affected by or infected with HIV and AIDS and children with disabilities are all more likely to miss out on the opportunity to attend school. Our education programmes and policy place particular emphasis on reaching those who have been excluded from the formal schooling system.
