CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Since 1987, our founder, Paul Barber, has championed the spirit of giving by organizing a large yearly donation of toys and turkeys to the Salvation Army. This tradition has continued nearly 30 years later with support from our CSR committee.

In 2015, Phil Gravel, our Vice President of Customer Success, decided to pursue his passion for making the world a better place by submitting a proposal for a formal Corporate Social Responsibility charter and committee.

Es gab zwei zentrale Grundsätze in Phils Vorschlag, die auch heute noch unsere CSR-Bemühungen prägen:

• Employees should lead the CSR effort and champion the causes they believe in.
• All initiatives should have the buy-in and support of our leadership team.

In its first year, the CSR committee donated over $100,000 to support charitable projects in Kenya and India, and to improve the lives of those suffering from homelessness, women affected by violence, and children afflicted with cancer and poverty in local communities.

Heute hat unser Ausschuss 15 Mitglieder, die dafür verantwortlich sind, unsere laufenden CSR-Initiativen zu fördern, zu organisieren und zu unterstützen.

War Child Canada unterstützt schutzbedürftigste Menschen, die unter schwierigen humanitären Bedingungen leben.

War Child is globally recognized for its grassroots, community-driven model of humanitarian action that’s rooted in collaboration, is 100% locally led, and focused on long-term impact. War Child Canada’s robust programs continue to empower children and families to build brighter futures for themselves and their communities through access to high-quality education, legal services, and job opportunities.

The Palestine Children’s Relief Fund was established in 1992 by concerned humanitarians in the USA to bring injured and sick children free medical care they could not get locally. Since then, they have sent over 2,000 sick and injured children for free medical care, as well as sponsored hundreds of volunteer medical teams from all over the world to treat tens of thousands of sick and injured youths in local hospitals. PCRF also has built two pediatric cancer departments in Palestine and has several more major programs and projects taking place to help support the development of a sustainable healthcare system there.
