Client: OVO Foundation

OVO Foundation – OVO Energy’s charitable arm – shares the belief that businesses should power human progress. Since 2014, OVO Foundation has invested over £6m in projects that help fulfil its vision to create a greener, brighter future for every child.

Underpinning this vision are two goals: to help children and young people to get closer to nature; and to empower them to learn how to protect the planet. To make real change happen we partner with brilliant charities to deliver climate action and education projects that equip children and young people to take action on the climate crisis. Together, we’re: - Planting 12 Tiny Forests, which double up as outdoor classrooms. That’s 7200 trees! - Helping students make their schools more energy-efficient - in 2022 we supported 250 schools. - Supporting youth-led environmental projects - 154 in the last year alone. - Giving 75 schools a cash prize to install their very own nature project, bringing over 37,000 children closer to nature. - Empowering 900 young climate activists a platform to educate 4500 teachers about climate change. - Showing 26,000 students how technology can address real climate issues, and prepare them for the future world of work. - Campaigning for better climate education and action nationally.
