One-stop giving solution for corporates

Why it makes sense to partner with UWBe for CSR

UWBe is part of a global family of 1800 United Way chapters across 47 countries. The first United Way was established in 1887.
UWBe offers a ‘One-stop Giving’ solution to corporates by:
- Linking them with credible agencies that work on causes of their choice who are already partners of UWBe and have proven credibility.
- A robust volunteer management system that matches employees with projects to better organize volunteer events.
- Payroll giving, which enable employees to give amounts of their choice and make a difference in the lives of the underprivileged.
- Enabling opportunities for corporates to be members of the United Way CEO Forum – a networking space that helps them to work collectively towards building sustainable communities.
For NGOs that corporates have identified UWBe has capabilities for:
- Stringent due diligence
- Identification of programs that are well managed and have demonstrated results
- Detailed monitoring and tracking
- Performance reviews
- Audit and impact assessment
- Capacity building for NGO partners for more effective program implementation
- Reporting

In both cases, the process is supervised by our Grant Making Committee MEMBERS.

India is one of the ‘young’ countries in the world, with 50% of its population below the age of 25 and more than 65% below the age of 35.

However, presently, only a small percentage of this population has access to livelihood opportunities in the organized sector, due to multiple challenges. UWBe, with support from an American Banking enterprise, is helping them build capacities to get employment opportunities in the organized sector, which will enable them to utilize social and welfare benefits such as maternity leave, specified minimum wages, health insurance, etc.

We work with women, young girls, school drop-outs and persons with disabilities, and reach out to corporate partners to ensure the employability of the people trained. While providing vocational skills training, we pay special attention to life skills and value education. The sponsoring company’s employees assist by:

Taking sessions on spoken English.
Offering counselling and career guidance support.
Assisting with content development for the training modules.
Conducting sessions on life skills.
Hosting exposure visits.
