Morgan Stanley's Commitment to Help Underprivileged Kids
Posted by Charity Watcher on Tuesday, November 17, 2015
Since its inception in 1935, Morgan Stanley has given a complete new meaning and purpose to financial services. The firm is considered a pioneer in creating new platforms and providing sound advice to clients on strategic transaction. They have paved the way to global expansion in finance and capital markets, and provided opportunities for small and large scale investors.
But their commitment lies not only in the financial services industry, but also to social responsibility. The Morgan Stanley International Foundation (MSIF) is committed to making positive impacts in communities in several continents, including Europe, Middle East and Africa. Their community affairs programs involve employee volunteer engagement, children’s health, education, employee charity support and funding.
In the employee volunteer engagement program, Morgan Stanley encourages employees to share their time and expertise in community reach-out programs. These reach-out programs could either be mentoring disadvantaged students or participating in a charity board.
Morgan Stanley also realizes the need for financial support in the children’s healthcare sector. In partnership with several charitable institutions, the company focuses on supporting young people up to 18 years of age by giving them access to quality healthcare.
The Morgan Stanley International Foundation also supports programs that are predominantly based in schools to ensure a child’s academic achievement and employability skills. There are many state-funded schools that have received the help of MSIF, and countless children from ages four to 21 have received proper education through them.
The company also supports the personally selected charities of their employees. Through the Employee Volunteer Incentive Program (EVIP), MSIF provides assistance to a wide range of charities and organizations where employees volunteer their commitment.
Morgan Stanley has reached out to underprivileged kids in Singapore a few years ago, which is an example of their commitment to uplifting children’s rights and welfare. The company also holds a record in charity donation with a £10m contribution to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for children in the United Kingdom.
