Our theory of change
In a few words

Wakam for Good wants to build a fairer and more inclusive world. For the world to move towards this ideal, we believe we have to promote the inclusion of financially and psychologically excluded populations in France and in Europe.

How? By supporting associations or organisations that help and reintegrate individuals in psychological and financial distress.

Inclusion is a priority issue for policymakers, regulatory bodies and development organisations around the world. According to the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations, it is a factor of progress, and Wakam for Good has made it its priority.

How Wakam for Good works

Wakam for Good is funded by donations

from Wakam and its distribution partners.

The endowment fund launches a call for associative projects

the selected non-profit organisations receive untargeted funding.

The donors’ employees vote for

their favourite project each year. The winner receives a bonus boost!
