Welcome to the Digicel Foundation website.
In 2004 the Digicel Foundation was founded on the simple premise that wherever Digicel grows, our communities must grow with us; and this principle continues to fuel our ethos of giving back to our communities across the region.
The Digicel Foundation remains a vested partner in the social development of our communities. We are doing this by increasing access for our Special Needs community and other at-risk populations. Our programmes aim to improve overall quality of life through capacity building and the use of technology in the education space, supporting and empowering survivors of domestic violence, supplying health interventions and fostering a spirit of self-reliance through sustainable enterprise within communities.
Today, as I look at the work that the Foundation has done across these core areas, I am humbled that the efforts of our team have to date impacted millions of lives.
A renowned entrepreneur once said that, “a sustainable world means working together to create prosperity for all.” In this regard, I recognise that the Foundation would not be as vibrant and strong as it is today without the support of our many partners who are helping us to make a difference. I am deeply grateful for their support.
As patron of Digicel Foundation, it is a point of pride that the spirit of giving back is deeply ingrained in the fibre and DNA of every one of our staff members and our Board. In this regard, I want to offer my sincere thanks and congratulations to the Foundation’s Board and executive staff and importantly, to all our Digicel Foundation volunteers for your commitment to helping to enrich the lives of individuals in communities across the length and breadth of Digicel’s footprint in the Caribbean, Central American and Pacific region.
This website tells the stories of the diligent work of our partners, our staff and our volunteers. I hope that it will serve as an inspiration from which our Foundations will continue to strengthen and grow, and encourage similar work from other corporations in our communities.
Together, let's create authentic, empathetic and resilient change.
Thank you.
Denis O’Brien, Founder & Patron
