The Cable & Wireless Seychelles Foundation (CWSF)

In line with its long–term commitment towards supporting the local communities and being responsive to their needs, the company officially launched the CWSF in March 2005.

Working under the slogan, “A helping hand for a stronger community”, the aims of the Foundation are:

1. To establish and build partnerships with local charitable and community organisations focusing on groups with ‘special needs’.
2. To actively contribute in the strengthening of communities in which we live and work.
3. To enhance the Cable & Wireless brand by promoting our role as a corporate citizen.

To date the company has undertaken many initiatives under the Foundation umbrella and has done so proactively. The Foundation continues to be positioned as an extra to the company’s normal donation activities.
