Our community investments are an important part of our efforts to help build trust in society and solve important problems. In Poland in FY20 (July 2019 – June 2020), PwC supported both financially and by sharing knowledge and experience:
- 9531 people
- 144 NGOs& social enterprises
Last year 561 PwC employees were engaged in social activity and spent 5000 hours at volunteering.
By sharing PwC’s greatest assets – the skills, knowledge and talent of our people – we focus on education, building the capacity of NGOs and supporting social enterprises.
COVID-19
Our #socialimpact, as a company and employees, has become particularly important at this point. In 2020, we support clients by taking actions, such as: free legal hotline or developing a crisis package for companies.
PwC Poland donated 300,000 PLN to hospitals in Cracow and Warsaw.
PwC has become a partner of "We Test - We Support" program in Poland. We financed 4,000 covid-19 tests for medical staff, which are implemented by medical labs "Diagnostyka Group".
As PwC Foundation, we support social enterprises and the fight against coronavirus.
Social enterprises provide i.e. catering, production and services. They employ people who are at risk of social exclusion e.g. with disabilities, recovering from addiction or homelessness.
On the one hand, PwC Foundation helps social enterprises to survive this difficult economic time by ordering products and services from them, and on the other hand, helps those who fight directly against the epidemiological threat and its consequences.
20 000 certified surgical masks. The social enterprise PANATO is sewing the masks, which we donated to the institutions and hospitals in need.
Over 1000 meals for hospitals prepared by social enterprises in 4 cities
1000 vizors manufactured by ManuMania Social Cooperative, which we will donate to medical personnel from selected hospitals
600 vizors - together with the Coder Dojo Foundation, we got involved in the "Printers for Hospitals" campaign.
We donate 100 used laptops to foster care facilities - orphanages and foster families from all over Poland. We work with our partner non-governmental organizations and the Coalition for Family Foster Care.
