Corporate partnerships

Product donations are shipped domestically and internationally, depending on the donor’s requests and needs in the field. Our global system enables staff to request what the communities they are serving need most, and to put the products to best use.

This fiscal year (2010), 48 countries around the world are expected to receive our corporate donors’ surplus and specially produced inventory. In FY09 (ended September 30, 2009), our corporate partners have donated more than $400 million worth of goods.

World Vision also engages with businesses through workplace giving and corporate team-building activities.

With workplace giving, an employee designates a charity to receive an amount of money that is regularly deducted from the employee’s paycheck. In FY09, workplace giving garnered $4.1 million that contributed to our child-focused, poverty-alleviation work around the world.

Our corporate team-building programs enable small and large businesses to host team-building activities at the location of their choice. Companies can choose between a domestic or international option to help children and families.
