Sponsorship
One powerful focus for our efforts to eliminate poverty is on children. Children born into extreme poverty is devastating. After becoming a father almost 40 years ago Jeremy Leonard found child sponsorship to be one way to effectively make a difference in the life of a child who needs the help.
With time, Jeremy continued to sponsor additional children and now he has expanded upon his personal contributions and added a more entrepreneurial approach. Through Work for All, each long-term employee from all of our companies has been connected to a child sponsorship with Plan International. Through this program employees are personally connected with how they are making a difference in a child’s life who, because of where they are born, lack the tools or resources to attend school or have regular meals and sanitation.
These personal connections to our efforts contribute to a positive culture and an understanding that we are working towards something that is larger than ourselves.
