Corporate Fundraising

The Victorian era in the UK was the golden age of the corporate philanthropist. The emergence of a business world that understood the plight of the poor; when generous contributions helped ease poverty, funded hospitals, schools and the improvement of social welfare.

The world has moved on but there is still synergy between global industrial powerhouses and the plight of the impoverished: corporate responsibility to give something back for humanitarian purposes remains the hallmark of enlightened companies; a policy that sets them apart from accusations of greed and indifference.

Orphans in Need has an international remit to eradicate the hopelessness of orphans and widows whose lives have little prospect of improvement. In abject conditions brought about through poverty, war, disease and exploitation their only positive future is through the efforts of individuals and organisations that are prepared to make a difference.
