WildHearts
It’s my belief that people are good, you just have to give them a credible way to express it. In fact, many of the most committed, compassionate people I know work in the business environment. So why is it that ‘business’ has been associated with perpetuating so many of the world’s problems? Why can’t we work together to channel our vast resources and talents to pioneer solutions? I believe that business must evolve to play a crucial role in the fight for economic justice. Can you imagine how different our world would be if the business community resolved to get serious about solving poverty?
WildHearts is a charity that has that resolve and is committed to launching companies that serve humanity. By combining philanthropy with entrepreneurial efficiency, we create sustainable, vigorously commercial vehicles that enable business to fulfil their CSR responsibilities and take a stand against economic injustice in an efficient and credible way.
Our business ethos pervades everything we do. We confront the dependency culture in all its forms. We do not pity the poor, we empower them. We posses an unquenchable belief in the creativity and resilience of the human spirit and so we give the poor in the developing world a hand up and NOT a hand out, by providing them with microloans and business training. This may explain why WildHearts is such a growing force within our business community; WildHearts is a means of fighting poverty that business people can relate to.
