Child Poverty Campaign Partnerships
Globally, 600 million children live in extreme poverty -- on less than $1 per day.
Child Poverty is an urgent domestic and international need, and we are deeply committed to making an impact through donations and outreach around this pressing global issue.
Ipswitch is collaborating with the Boston Foundation as a fund administrator for the Child Poverty Campaign. Are you interested in helping us in this fight? Ipswitch has established the Ipswitch Child Poverty Fund at the Boston Foundation and 100% of your donation will be distributed, in equal proportions, quarterly to Child Poverty Fund beneficiary organizations listed below (subject to standard Boston Foundation review and approval process regarding donor advised funds). Please consider donating to the cause by contacting hr@ipswitch.com with details or call 781-676-5700 and ask for Human Resources.
Partnerships
Ipswitch is partnering with Year Up to empower the next generation of IT leaders.
Year Up's mission is to close the Opportunity Divide by providing urban young adults with the skills, experience, and support that will empower them to reach their potential through professional careers and higher education.
We achieve this mission through a high support, high expectation model that combines marketable job skills, stipends, corporate apprenticeships, college credit, a behavior management system and several levels of support to place these young adults on a viable path to economic self-sufficiency. Our intensive training and education program serves urban young adults, ages 18-24, in Boston, New York City, Providence and Washington, D.C. [Read more]
