Solar energy company

Lightsource

Since 2014, Lightsource and its employees have supported the community of Koh Krolor in Cambodia. This successful corporate partnership has brought many benefits to the Koh Krolor community and to the Lightsource employees who volunteered to visit. Their solar installations have brought light to a local school and powered a community water pump. Alongside local volunteers, the long-term projects they fund are designed to develop and transform the community, addressing the biggest challenges they face.

Mental Health and Well-being Consultancy

Big Bear Bespoke Education

"Partnering with World Vision works for us in many ways: It's a privilege to network with individuals in the business and charitable sector and share ideas. Also, we work with young clients and families to support mental health needs and research educational ideas. Hearing inspiring research and ideas from those doing the same in some of the most challenging situations in the world is encouraging and helps us in our own work. And also, it helps our well-being. Our workforce report it improves teamwork and means they have the opportunity to ‘give back’ - making them happier, healthier people."

"We feel excited about giving to World Vision, as it feels like we’re doing something that matters. Generosity and kindness are always worth pursuing, as when we act in love we not only bless those who we give to, but we bring joy to ourselves too! Involving our staff has been so key, and has really made our giving feel more worthwhile. Knowing that staff can be part of it, and that what they give is matched by the company, is great. The staff enjoy working for a company that is actively doing good and caring about those less advantaged than us."

Corporate charity partnerships are good for the world

Sponsor children as a company

By sponsoring children for each employee, or as a group, in a country of your choice, you will transform your life and theirs. Through regular letters, videos, updates and vision trips, you will witness the transformation of an entire community. Your company will be responsible for giving children around the world, clean water, nutritious food, education, healthcare and safely. What a legacy to leave! You can also host a Chosen™ party at your company, where sponsored children can pick their sponsors – a truly moving experience for all involved.

Community sponsorship

Your company can directly support a project in a particular country, which will resonate with your customers and inspire your employees. Make us your charity of the year, and our partnership will bring transformation to an entire community. Many companies like to be ‘twinned’ with a community over a number of years, seeing over time the incredible difference they are making. You will also be able to visit the community, on a Vision Trip, sharing the experience with a group of employees. This builds customer loyalty and inspires and engages employees on a deeper level with your brand.

Why World Vision?

Our focus is on helping the most vulnerable children in the most dangerous places overcome poverty and experience fullness of live. We help children of all backgrounds in the world’s toughest places, inspired by our Christian faith.

With over 70 years of experience working with communities, donors, partners and governments in almost 100 countries, we empower communities to set their own goals and lead their own development – across water, health, education, child protection and income generation - so that progress made is sustained, and continued, long after we’ve left. And when disaster strikes we are on the ground, quickly providing immediate support – and we stay for the long term, helping rebuild lives for children, families and communities.
