Globally, our Foundations make social investments by funding projects which support disaster relief and preparedness or fund sport and music projects which benefit some of the most disadvantaged young people and their communities. Locally, our social investment is delivered by a unique footprint of 24 Vodafone Foundations and social investment programmes.
Our Foundations make social investments that help the people of the world to lead fuller lives by:
- Sharing the benefits of developments in mobile communications technology as widely as possible;
- Supporting the local communities in which Vodafone operates;
- Helping to alleviate suffering in disaster areas;
- Supporting sport and music projects to benefit young people and their communities;
- Promoting the health and well-being of young people; and
- Protecting the natural environment.
