Community Initiatives

Involve clients and employees in the Community

WINDTRE believes in the importance of doing business in an ethically sustainable manner, and engages its customers and employees in initiatives that require the company’s active participation.

With regard to its customers, during the course of the year the company renders its infrastructures available for numerous charitable fund-raisers, as well as “cause-related marketing” initiatives, in order to collaborate with its customers in support of social projects alongside various non-profit organisations.

With regard to its employees, WINDTRE promotes their engagement in the solidarity initiatives promoted by the company, in terms of both direct participation and shared choices.

Charity numbers

WINDTRE offers charity numbers since 2004 to non-profit organisations, charities, associations, and foundations, in collaboration with the other Italian telecommunications service providers. Thanks to this service, customers can donate € 1 or € 2 by sending a text from their mobile phones, and 2, 5 or 10 € by a fixed line call. The funds raised are entirely transferred to the charity running the project supported.

During the course of 2018, WINDTRE supported a total of 129 initiatives regarding various social and humanitarian issues, such as scientific research, child welfare, support for developing countries, violence against women, and environmental protection, collecting and donating a total amount of about € 3.5 million to the NPOs.

From 2018 entered into force the new “Codice di Autoregolamentazione per la gestione delle numerazioni utilizzate per le raccolte fondi telefoniche per fini benefici di utilità sociale”, that can be seen on the AGCOM website and at the following download.

The engagement of WINDTRE people

As an established tradition within the company, WINDTRE employees participate to solidarity initiatives promoted by the company, both in terms of direct participation and shared choices.

BLOOD DONATION

Thanks to a valuable partnership with the Italian Red Cross and AVIS, WINDTRE employees can twice a year participate to the blood donation days at the company offices in Rome, Milan, Ivrea and Pozzuoli. A simple yet extremely important solidarity gesture.

RACE FOR THE CURE

Every year in May WINDTRE employees participate in Rome to the Race For the Cure, the fundraising marathon for the fight against breast cancer and for raising public awareness of the importance of prevention.

TOGETHER WE CAN

Through the “Insieme Si Può” (Together We Can) initiative, every year from September to December all WINDTRE employees are engaged in the process of proposing and voting on the solidarity initiatives eligible to receive a contribution from the company, through the corporate intranet.
