Employee Engagement
Whether you are looking for a one-day event, a Christmas initiative, or an athletic competition, we have what you need to make it happen.
Good things happen together. When teams work for a fairer world and companies support their efforts, the impact is lasting.
We offer inspiring opportunities for companies and their teams—from payroll giving and fundraising campaigns to motivating events. This makes social engagement simple, effective, and strengthens cohesion within the company.
Actively support your employees’ engagement. It strengthens team spirit and motivation while showing that social responsibility is a core part of your corporate culture.
Let’s make a difference together! Contact our team for personalised advice and find the right engagement format for your company.

Payroll Giving
With a payroll giving program, you enable your employees to make a meaningful contribution easily—through small monthly donations or one-time gifts.
Popular forms of payroll giving include the spare change donation and bonus donation.
Fundraising campaigns
When colleagues come together, they often feel the desire to make a tangible difference. Fundraising campaigns are a great way to do this—fostering team spirit, motivating staff, and sending a strong message of social commitment.
Occasions for fundraising campaigns
There are many opportunities to start a company fundraising initiative, such as:
Anniversaries and company celebrations: Mark milestones or successes by doing good together.
Holiday campaigns: Use the festive season to raise donations for a good cause—perhaps at your company Christmas party.
Sports and team events: Athletic challenges are a great way to combine fundraising with health promotion and shared experience.
Emergency situations: In crises such as natural disasters or humanitarian emergencies, you can mobilise swift joint support.
Where can donations be directed?
Welthungerhilfe (WHH) offers a wide range of options to target your donations effectively.
Our support for your fundraising campaign
WHH will support you in organising your initiative through:
- Online fundraising: Collect donations easily and transparently via the Betterplace platform. The campaign can be shared across your company using a simple donation link.
- Sporting challenges: Take part in the WHH ZeroHungerRun or create your own ZeroHunger Sport Challenge.
- Feedback and updates: Share progress internally or on social media—we provide tools to help.
- First-hand insights: For highly engaged teams, we can arrange direct exchanges with our colleagues in project countries—giving you first-hand perspectives and answers.
Let’s work together for a fairer world! Contact us to discuss your ideas and launch the perfect fundraising campaign for your company.
Volunteering
We’re delighted when company employees wish to volunteer for WHH. Especially in fundraising activities—such as creative donation campaigns or participation in our charity runs—there are many ways to contribute ideas and skills for a world without hunger.
Other forms of volunteering, however, are possible only to a limited extent.
Shaping the future with expertise – Volunteering in the Innovation Lab
In WHH’s Innovation Lab, we work with partners from business and academia to develop forward-looking solutions that advance our #ZeroHunger vision. Thematic and regional priorities are redefined each year.
Professionals from companies—ideally from the relevant focus regions—can contribute their expertise to our innovation processes.
Would you like to contribute your know-how? Get in touch with us.
Why corporate volunteering in project work is not possible
We greatly value companies that give employees time off to support aid organizations. However, our work primarily takes place in regions heavily affected by hunger and poverty. Given the often challenging living conditions, we adhere to strict safety protocols and only send trained staff who are familiar with local contexts to project areas.
Participation in WHH Events
Take a strong stand against hunger with your team—and experience unforgettable moments together! Whether at the #ZeroHungerRun in Bonn or virtually: run for a good cause and raise funds for a world without hunger. Find out more here:
