Everyone knows, that giving back to the community not only makes good business sense but is also integral for brand sustainability. The big challenge is that few companies have the time, structures or manpower, to ensure they have a well-designed, organised and monitored CSR programs, hence the famous rush at the end of the year by companies to spend their CSR budgets, on worthwhile causes, which unfortunately do not have measurable impact.

MYne as a social movement uses a unique approach of partnering with businesses, to focus on three integral pillars affecting current and future generations: Health, Environment and Inspiring the employees of tomorrow. MYne not only wants businesses to invest in activities aimed at improving health, environment and the future of children; but to also actively participate in positively impacting the children who eagerly need our help.

MYne accomplishes this by working with companies to increase ownership of these issues through focused campaigns and activities tailor-made for maximum impact, while simultaneously motivating their employees. MYne offers a Win-Win solution to organizations to give back to their communities, grow their brand and improve their staff motivation, at an affordable cost! What more could a business want?

MYne Brings a Wealth of Experience

The leadership of MYne managed a CSR program in a large organization with presence in East Africa. The program addressed three main issues affecting less-privileged children in schools; worm infestation of children, environmental degradation and lack of career guidance.

In only one year the program managed to Deworm 29,727 school going children, plant 16,794 trees in 46 schools in East Africa (namely Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania) and provide career guidance to 8,551 school going children. All this was accomplished on a minimal budget and staff volunteers. Needless to say, this CSI project made a commendable impact. However, due to limitations on funding, geographical presence and manpower, the impact was not enough to transform East Africa. Imagine what can be accomplished if there are hundreds of like-minded companies to take responsibility of schools geographically linked to their businesses and/or interests? YES! The impact would be transformational!
