Czech corporate philanthropy has grown in both size and profile in the last few years, according to Pavlina Kalousova of the Czech Donors Forum.

She told the Prague Post: “In the past few years, we’ve seen corporate philanthropy become a key part of the corporate structure. This can have a significant impact on a company’s value on the market… The situation in society has changed. People want companies to behave responsibly.”

The Donors Forum, an umbrella organisation for foundations and companies, works to cultivate a healthy environment for giving, support inter-sectoral cooperation, and build an infrastructure for philanthropy in the Czech Republic.
