Community
Our rich history of assisting people and communities
across the globe goes far beyond the transferring of
money. Each day, through the Western Union Foundation,
we find ways to provide assistance to those who need it
most. In just over five years, the Foundation has helped
generate tens of millions of dollars for international non-
profit organizations like the Red Cross and America’s
Second Harvest
—
providing disaster relief, education and
human service programs.
Internationally, we’re helping the Asia Foundation
educate and empower migrant women in Jintang County,
China, while giving homeless children in Mumbai, India, a
new life through the Vatsalya Foundation. We’ve generated
nearly $1.5 million to help survivors of Hurricane Katrina
and the city of New Orleans, and nearly $2 million
—
in
immediate relief and for rebuilding
—
to help the survivors
of the 2004 tsunami. We also donated to the survivors
of the earthquakes in Indonesia and Pakistan in 2005
and 2006.
The Western Union Foundation is one more reason
why we are truly local
—
regardless of city, country or
even continent.
