This year we decided to have some fun while supporting causes close to the hearts of our people. In September we got together in Austria, the United Kingdom, and Singapore to take part in fun (and competitive) activities with the top 3 teams from each of our offices nominating charities to support.
Our Giving
Community Support
Together To Make An Impact
We journey with our people to further develop their gifts and talents while working together to positively impact those less fortunate and in need. Whether it’s taking part in our charitable events, such as renovating gardens or supporting a local city farm, raising money for a good cause or mentoring high school students, we partner with our people to give back.
Impact Days
We want our people to be able to give back to the causes that matter to them. Each of our staff has 2 days each year to give their time to a cause they care about.
Payroll Giving
Staff can donate to the charity of their choice with donations deducted from gross pay. Not only is this a tax-efficient way to donate but we cover 100% of the administration cost.
Student Coaching
We have partnered with award-winning education charity, Future Frontiers, to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to fulfil their potential through 1-on-1 coaching.

COVID-19 Giving
Helping Where We Can
“Since initially outlining our 2020 Giving Strategy, a significant amount has changed in the world and we are pleased to have increased our giving efforts and our approach to supporting charities in our local communities.”

Supporting Our Frontline Health Workers
NHS Charities Together represents 220 charities throughout the UK that support the NHS. All funds raised as part of their Covid-19 Urgent Appeal will support the health and wellbeing of staff and volunteers who continue to provide medical care for all as well as treat COVID-19 patients.
Looking After Vienna’s Homeless
Caritas is an Austrian charity that helps combat homelessness by providing much-needed support, guidance, and a hot meal every day to those living on the streets. The people they support are extremely vulnerable at the moment and demand for support has increased.
Supporting Singapore’s Workers
TWC2 works to bring equitable treatment for migrant workers in Singapore, who has seen a second wave of the Coronavirus hit really hard. The impacts have been especially bad for migrant workers living in dorm-like accommodation where the virus has been able to spread rapidly.
Safety For Women & Children
Women’s Aid is a grassroots federation working to support the safety of women and children who suffer from domestic violence. Women’s Aid believes that everyone has the right to a life free from violence and abuse and that we as a society have a responsibility to acknowledge and defend this right for all.
Nationwide UK Food Banks
The Trussell Trust supports a nationwide network of food banks that provide emergency food and support for those living in poverty. As the current situation continues to evolve, food banks need support more now than ever to supply essential supplies for those in need.
Feeding London’s Most Vulnerable Community
First Love Foundation works to feed the community of Tower Hamlets, a borough known to have the highest levels of poverty in the United Kingdom. We have supported the First Love Foundation for the last 5 years and are proud to support their efforts during this difficult time.
