JPMorgan Chase
WORLD VISION PARTNER SINCE 2005 Moved by the tragic 2010 earthquake in Haiti, JPMorgan Chase wanted to give employees a tangible way to help. They hosted a World Vision kit build event where Chase teams gathered to assemble supply kits for survivors, and provided a $150,000 grant to help the Haitian people rebuild. That was just the beginning. In 2011, JPMorgan Chase engaged their employees and sponsored an unprecedented 41 ‘team-building events with a purpose,’ where their employees rolled up their sleeves to assemble nearly 21,000 supply kits for children in under-resourced communities and victims of natural disaster, and volunteered their time to deliver some of the kits to local children in need.

After the devastating Japan earthquake and tsunami early in the year, together we created a customized giving webpage, enabling their employees worldwide to support our relief efforts in Japan. Chase employees in 14 countries responded, and the company generously matched their gifts. JPMorgan Chase gave an additional three grants totaling $500,000 to support disaster relief efforts in Japan, the Philippines, and the U.S.
Pearson
WORLD VISION PARTNER SINCE 2004 In January 2010, the world was shocked by the devastating damage and loss as a result of the massive earthquake in Haiti. Deepening the breadth of our partnership, Pearson Foundation actively joined World Vision’s response and recovery efforts in Haiti with a $100,000 grant that funded 15 Early Childhood Development Learning Spaces. Each of these learning spaces is designed to provide a safe and appropriate psychosocial support center for children whose lives have been disrupted and traumatized by this disaster. Thanks to the commitment of Pearson Foundation, more than 1,100 children are participating in quality, non-formal early childhood education classes in a safe and protected environment.
