Green for Impact Brazil – 2nd phase

Our Project Green for Impact Brazil now enters the second and last phase of contribution. We will use IAAB’s “Force for Good” online platform launched last year in partnership with Incentiv, a taxtech startup that connects the tax incentive ecosystem with NGOs and donors, providing more convenience, engagement and transparency. It is essential that all donations are made through the Incentiv platform, as this is the only way to track our community’s contribution.

Within the same INSEAD principles and values of the first phase, the second phase fundraises for three projects, prioritizing alumni-led NGOs and tax incentivized projects. All three initiatives also bring relevant national coverage and diverse objectives for impact.

Our selected initiatives are:

  1. Plan International Covid-19 Response, led by Cynthia Betti, INSEAD Alumni PGA’14, has as one of its initiatives to help girls from around the country to become leaders in their community, heading the combat against the Covid-19. Know more here.

  1. #VencendoJuntos, led by Flavio Canto INSEAD Alumni PGA’18 and supported by other 8 renowned athletes, aims at assisting 33k low-income families across the country in 3 months with basic-needs grocery packages. Know more here.

  1. IOS: Founded in 1998, IOS (Instituto da Oportunidade Social) for low-income teenagers was pushed to invest in the qualification of its instructors for the new distance learning environment, due to Covid-19. Donations to this project are tax-deductible for individuals and corporations. Know more here.

The 2nd phase will last for three months, we start today and will raise funds until August 11th

Our goal is to reach at least R$ 50k for each initiative.

We kick off with 6K donations from PayU and OnDoctor our first institutional donors. INSEAD Alumni Association Brazil (IAAB) will match with 10% up to 13K. So let’s make it happen!

This will get us to a total of R$ 150.000 or more!

We welcome you as an individual, your company or any person from your network, to donate, helping us achieve this goal and generate lasting impact in Brazil. Be an institutional partner, talk to us!

Thank you very much for your collaboration.  Know more about Green for Impact Brazil, its phases, and how to support, here.

CALL for ACTION: Green for Impact Brazil Launch Fundraise Phase 1

CALL for ACTION: Green for Impact Brazil
Launch Fundraise Phase 1 – Fundo Volta por Cima

As you have been following our weekly updates in our engagement with Project Green for Impact, we are here now to launch our fundraising phase 1, with a special initiative that strongly connects with our vision of INSEAD and Business as a Force for Good.
Given the high number of projects aimed on the supply of medical appliances, we decided to focus on where we have more value to add. Thus, over the last two weeks, our group of volunteers actively sought initiatives that meet the following expected criteria: (i) high relevance; (ii) coordinated by credible partners; and (iii) our contribution (financial and other actions) would have a material impact.

In this context, we selected the “Turnaround Fund for Businesses in Low-income Communities” partnering with Pérola Bank and Agência Articuladora de Negócios de Impacto da Periferia (“ANIP”). ANIP is an entity formed by Artemisia, A Banca and FGVCenn and acts as an articulator to support social impact business in low-income communities.

Learn more about the initiative and how you can contribute. We will send daily updates on our numbers through our social media channels, so be connected.

Learn & Contribute

Our goal is to reach at least R$ 50k in 5 days to support selected impact businesses.

We kick off with a donation of R$ 5k by PayU, our first institutional donor. INSEAD Alumni Association Brazil (IAAB) will match with another R$ 5k donation IF we achieve an additional R$ 50k until 19-apr-20. So let’s make it happen!

This will get us to a total of R$ 60.000 or more!

We welcome you as an individual, your company or any person from your network, to donate, helping us achieve this goal and generate lasting impact in Brazil.

WE CANNOT LEAVE THE POWER OF OUR NETWORK IN QUARANTINE, CONNECT, MOBILIZE!

Join us in this task-force, by:

  • Volunteering to join our team.
  • Being engaged through our communication channels and responding to our team specific requests.
  • Helping our fundraising goals by donating and spreading our call.
