Be a corporate HopeBuilder!

How your company can help

Laying the foundations, building a team

When your company commits to being a HopeBuilder, you will not only be helping families overcome poverty, but will also build your business too.

You can involve everyone in your company, from the CEO to the most junior employee. It's an opportunity to work together to make the world a better place. It's a great focus for teambuilding, enabling you to encourage people from different job functions, even different locations, to work together towards a really motivating goal.

How about using the HopeBuilder campaign to cement relationships with your suppliers or your customers? It can really help to break down barriers!

You can even send employees to go as volunteers on a build!

Finally, because the campaign is modular (i.e. you can build just one house, or hundreds, in one part of the world or right across it, send volunteers or just raise funds), we can work with you to create a unique creative campaign that achieves your business objectives as well as enabling people to escape poverty.

Please note: All HopeBuilders income (over and above the cost of promoting and managing the campaign) goes towards building homes for families in need. Whilst you can choose a destination for your HopeBuilders gifts it may sometimes be necessary (e.g. at times of natural disaster) to divert the money to where the need is greatest.
