There are many challenges facing European society nowadays.
Real sustainable answers to the biggest, most crucial social problems can be found and applied by starting on the local level, in other words by working bottom up.
Community foundations play a key role in change on the local level – they support self-organizing, local citizens to responding to problems and challenges by leveraging local resources, such as social, human and financial capital.
From our rich experience we know that social and human capital can be mobilised to great ends, but that financial support is essential, both for community philanthropy to thrive in a changing and competitive landscape, and to sustainably address social problems.
Join us! Become a partner and help us build strong and sustainable community philanthropy and communities, capable of taking up global challenges on the local level.

role of women and girls in various terror groupssadiakorobi2
Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

1. Hilton in the Community Foundation:
What role for business groups in homeless policy?
One corporate foundation’s response to the issue of homelessness
Simon Sheehan, Director
June 8th 2012, Brussels

• Active in 27 countries
• Roots are in UK/Ireland – majority
of fundraising and giving is there
but Europe growing
• Local giving model – supporting
local young people in each country
through hotel fundraising
4. ABOUT US: our mission
• To make a real difference to those
young people who are most in need
• To equip young people with the skills and
opportunities to have a brighter future
• Through providing grant support to:
Education - Training/re-training,
educational equipment, activity based
learning, sports equipment, transport etc.
Health - medical equipment, care facilities,
activity based holidays, awareness
campaigns, hospices, “make-a-wish”
activities, treatment etc.
5. Why homelessness?
• One of four core areas of funding focus
chosen by our volunteers:
– Disabled Children and Young People
– Life-limited Children
– Homelessness
– Children in Hospital
• Direct and visible need in our communities;
connection to wide range of social issues
• Natural synergy with hotels:
– Employability
– Skill sharing
– In-kind giving
6. How have we engaged?

accommodation

careers advice and possible employment
7. What role for business groups?
• Recognizing our collective responsibility
• Being aware of our limitations and managing
expectations of the sector
– e.g., Trust /Foundation income reducing;
businesses probably can’t fill this gap
• Celebrating what is done already – to help
spread awareness and yield new ideas
8. What role for business groups?
• Employment
• Positive Brand alignment – can bring
recognition
• In kind support
– but Businesses moving towards counting ‘hours’ and ‘in kind
support’ versus hard cash

young people

young people in three UK counties, helping to
transform their lives

(80% success rate)

support from HR

engage funders and supporters
10. Issues of engaging businesses

• Attitude and ability
• Afford to work and Pay day
