After a long winter, the staff at IGI Global decided to take advantage of a nice spring day and gathered together outside of their Hershey, Pennsylvania, USA office for a picture wearing their World Forgotten Children Foundation (WFCF) polo shirts. Since WFCF’s inception more than 15 years ago, IGI Global, an international academic publishing house, has been a very dedicated corporate sponsor of the foundation.
As a corporate sponsor, IGI Global provides ongoing support by sharing information about the foundation on their website and through social media and hosting occasional events and fundraisers. IGI Global also donates 5% of all purchases made through its online bookstore to WFCF’s causes and provides its authors and editors with the opportunity to donate a percentage of their royalties as well.
Through this powerful partnership, funded projects have included: supplying wheelchairs and crutches to orphans in Africa, providing educational support tools to children with albinism in Tanzania, and funding nutritional and medicinal products for orphanages in Ukraine.
Please visit IGI Global’s corporate social responsibility page for more information on how this publisher is actively involved in the community.
Also, any organization that is interested in becoming a corporate sponsor of WFCF is welcome to contact: help@world-forgotten-children.org for more information.
