charities, the programme has so far helped 1500 people bring valuable skills
and experience to charitable organisations across the UK.
The World of Difference programme
presents a fantastic opportunity for anyone recently inspired to consider
volunteering. The
World of Difference scheme is also an excellent introduction to volunteering
for those who may not have previous experience.
For example, Nottingham resident Suzy Shaw worked with a charity called Stylicious, a social enterprise that collects donations of appropriate work clothing for issue to unemployed people from disadvantaged communities.
Once winners are
selected, the Vodafone Foundation will pay £2,500 to their charities, to cover
salary costs, once tax and National Insurance have been paid. Charities will
also receive £250 towards expenses associated with enrolling and employing the
winner.
Gok comments: "The Vodafone
World of Difference programme really does make a difference to the winners and
charities involved. It's amazing - eight out of
ten of those who took part last year planned to continue their work with their
chosen charity after the programme finished" continued Gok. "I am honoured to be asked to work with World of
Difference again and proud to make it my mission to let as many people, and
charities, as possible know about this once in a lifetime opportunity."
Charities and
individuals wanting to take part in the Vodafone World of Difference programme

also hosts a Charity Matchmaker tool for those who want to participate but
