Our Commitment to Social Return
Our goal at Bright8 is to be a part of something bigger than ourselves. Beyond serving our clients well, we look for opportunities to give back to society through various charitable donations, and social return projects. In fact, we dedicate 20% of our available resources to social return projects. This concept is an integral part of our business operations.
We support local NGOs, or voluntary group or institutions which pursue a social mission and operate independently from government with our professional communication services. Since 2020, we have been actively involved in projects in Curaçao, supporting organisations distributing food packages during their pandemic lockdown that are still helping 50% of the population which is currently depending on food support.
Closer to home in Amsterdam, we have been actively supporting local NGO, HVO-Querido, with its local food programs. One of this program’s missions is to work with local restaurants to turn the food that is usually thrown away at the end of the day into simple meals to support local families that need that help. These meals are currently available in eight refrigerated storage locations throughout Amsterdam.
To honor DNA-based cancer research being done to find patient cures and provide relief, Bright8 donates to Stelvio for Life Foundation (Bronze partner), as well as to the KWF Dutch Cancer Society. Engaging in these initiatives, we support scientific research that can have a tremendous effect in bettering cancer patients and their families’ lives.
