Our Impact
All Over The World

Transforming Lives Through
Education

Education is a powerful tool for breaking cycles of poverty and inequality. Through our scholarship programs, we’ve helped talented students from underserved communities access quality education.

Empowering Researchers in Need

One of the Foundation’s earliest and most enduring initiatives, the Researchers in Need program, was created to support research professionals and their families in times of crisis. This initiative has provided financial relief to families who have suffered due to war, natural disasters, or personal misfortune. Notable cases include providing assistance to a researcher’s family in India after the sudden loss of their loved one, supporting Lebanese researchers affected by economic hardship, and researchers affected by the troubles in Myanmar.

Leveraging the skills and knowledge of the market research industry for social good

Launched to create lasting impact through skills-based volunteering, the OneDay initiative invites market research professionals to donate a single day of their expertise to a vetted charity. This initiative not only strengthens the work of nonprofits but also fosters a deeper connection between industry professionals and the communities they serve. Participating employees have reported renewed motivation and a greater sense of purpose, while companies benefit from enhanced corporate social responsibility.

Your Support Makes It Possible

Our impact is only possible because of the individuals, companies, and organizations who share our vision. With your continued support, we can fund scholarships, provide essential resources to researchers, and develop new programs that bring lasting change.
