What are the objectives?
Our collaborative #ImpactWithPurpose programme aims to establish a long-term approach to corporate philanthropy by intertwining business strategy with social objectives. We aim to define your organisation’s desired outcomes and build effective partnerships with the social impact sector to help address a particular societal or environmental need. By doing so, we aim to contribute to relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) while identifying strengths and potential growth areas.

It offers a concise framework for creating strong, rewarding, and sustainable partnerships with the social impact sector.
