Global partnership

This year we launched our partnership with The Global Fund for Children. The GFC seek out small, innovative, grassroots community based organisations and work with them to unlock their potential and achieve sustainability. Through our partnership the skills and experiences of our people are leveraged to provide their grantees with support around areas including finance, governance and HR.

In 2015, the CEO of Grant Thornton International Ltd, was appointed to the board of directors for The Global Fund.

Across Grant Thornton we are actively involved in the following areas:

  • education: helping communities and people to grow, develop and unlock their potential
  • healthcare: giving our time on initiatives important to our communities
  • helping communities and people to grow, develop and unlock their potential
  • collaborating with charities and NGOs to support people in poverty.
