MTN FOUNDATION CSR Profile
(Corporate Social Responsibility)
The information here is mainly collected from MTN's own web-site for CSR (find it here).
The MTN Foundation was created with a focus on giving back to society and "Impacting the quality of lives in our communities" in a meaningful way. We are passionate about our vision to positively impact lives in our communities therefore we intervene through projects in 3 key areas, namely:
- Economic Empowerment
- Health
- Education
The Foundation was not set up to distribute ad-hoc donations, and court the attendant publicity. The decision to concentrate on the areas of health, education and economic empowerment was based on output from a series of highly interactive sessions with NGO's, private and public sector leaders as well as community based organizations.
MTN has strict guidlines for the CSR project they can support. Read them here if you considder asking.

Profit & Percentage of profit to CSR: the Foundation is in a truly unique position to give back to society on a sustainable basis.

Aid Evaluator seeks volunteers to help find information about organisations.
To gather all of the information needed to help people, all over the world, volunteers play an essential role at Aid Evaluator. The hope is that ordinary, as well as extraordinary, people will become responsible for their local area. Being responsible means updating the site on the available offers of help and trying to keep this information updated.

Show support for Aid Evaluators sister-site: The Charity Review on Facebook
Aid Evaluator does not want you money, it wants your backing and your specific knowledge, about projects that help.
Furthermore, Aid Evaluator needs publicity. If people can neither find the help they seek, nor add information about the projects they know of, simply because they are not aware of the existence of Aid Evaluator; it won't do much good.
So do spread the word though Facebook, for instance. The Charity Review is the same as Aid Evaluator only focused on Denmark; to get at least one country to work. The idea cannot work without massive support.
