supporting grassroots social impact through collective action
Through inclusive social development projects, we strengthen civil society and fight exclusion.
Mobilizing the power of Konecta’s people
We encourage Konecta employees to nominate social organizations for our support, and to participate in volunteering activities such as pro bono support, mentorship and training, and solidarity events.
Fundraising and donations
We organize fundraising charity events and appeals around the world, including coordinating collection drives for food, clothing, toys and other essential goods to support vulnerable families and communities, and organizing donations of technology, furniture, school supplies and other essential materials to NGOs and communities.
Campaigns, awareness and advocacy
We promote a wide range of awareness-raising campaigns and activities – from internal communications on disability issues to external events, congresses and media activity that raise awareness and share success stories – working with NGOs, businesses, schools and others for a multiplier effect.
All these activities reflect the Foundation’s commitment to deepen and widen Konecta’s lasting social impact – by strengthening civil society and developing a more engaged and resilient social fabric.

It has offered its knowledge and experience to provide advice on accessibility and employability to the families of people with disabilities, and thus forms part of the network of professionals and organisations that the Fundación Bertín Osborne is creating through its comprehensive advice service +Family. ”
