On Tuesday 15 May, the Foundation was named runner up in the Employment Scheme Award at the Business Charity Awards. With an independent judging panel from charities, corporate and professionals in the voluntary world, you know you are being judged by people who really know what they are doing. Therefore we were delighted to be shortlisted. We hope this recognition of the work being done with the Prince's Trust will inspire other parts of DHL to get involved, so we can carry on making a real difference to young unemployed people's lives.
The third annual review of the DHL UK Foundation has just been published. Based around the theme that everyone can find the hero inside themselves by taking part in Foundation programmes, the review looks at the activities and impacts of 2010/11. It follows the stories of employees, young people and fundraisers who have been helped by the Foundation, as well as detailing financial and legal information. Finally it looks to the future, outlining plans and targets for the year ahead. Just click on the front cover below and you will be taken to the on-line version.
The Foundation's updated strategy document is now available to download.
