Our commitment to respond
We respond to local needs and work with not-for-profit and charity partners to make a difference to local communities, through skills-based and hands-on activities.
A great range of initiatives are organised across our network of offices in EMEA, including career-readiness and financial education workshops, as well as charity fundraising events. We also take part in volunteering activities and are proud to engage in Mizuho's global Mizuho Volunteer Day, an annual opportunity for employees to give back to their communities.
We are committed to developing our positive impact on society, and here are some of the ways we raise funds, and give our time.
Meet our charity partners
London | City Harvest
Our colleagues in London are delighted to support City Harvest, a food redistribution charity that rescues nutritious surplus food from across the food industry, and delivers it, for free, to over 130,000 people a week via community organisations feeding those facing food poverty. Its mission is to rescue food, people, and the planet by diverting food waste, providing life-changing support to communities across London through food, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste.
Amsterdam | NL Cares
Our colleagues in Amsterdam are proud to have partnered with NL Cares since 2017. Working together helps us connect with members of our local community that may need extra support, including children and young people in disadvantaged situations, the elderly, migrants, the homeless, and people with disabilities. Our work with NL Cares not only enables us to actively support people through volunteering activities, it helps broaden our view of the world.
