Our focus areas
We act by responding to the needs of communities in crisis, helping to tackle food insecurity and by enhancing the quality of life in our communities.
-
Disaster relief We help our communities when disasters strike, and accompany them in the recovery phase, through dedicated front-line support and assistance via global or local partners.
-
Food access We tackle food insecurity by helping people in need have access to healthier foods and work to make them part of the community through shared meals and services.
-
Community life We foster a vibrant, joyful and dynamic community life through support of events and platforms that make our communities a good place to live.
