Empowering social resilience in collaboration with Brainport voor Elkaar
Recently we joined forces with Brainport voor Elkaar to foster data innovation in the social domain. Brainport voor Elkaar strives to include everyone in the success of the Brainport region, also the less fortune ones. We joined their partner network, with which they aim to connect social organizations to companies to work together on challenges in the area.
To kick start this cooperation Brainport voor Elkaar connected us to Lumens, a social organization that fosters social resilience for those who cannot take this for granted. We are going to help them to identify and quantify their contribution to social resilience within society. Curious what this exactly entails? Read this blog.
Bright Cape Foundation: our commitment to global fairness and employee well-being
Over the past year, Bright Cape has integrated a sustainability vision into our business operations. While our efforts have focused on enhancing processes and stimulating our clients to operate more sustainably, we recognize the critical importance of addressing the human aspect of sustainability as well. Since Bright Cape’s success is intertwined with our employees’ well-being, we try to ensure that our employees are mentally, physically, and socially happy. We do this, for example, by providing tools to create a good work-life balance, healthy food, fun team activities, mental awareness sessions and an extensive training curriculum.

Unfortunately, today’s society still shows a lot of inequalities when looking at satisfaction of basic needs, accessibility of qualitative health care and information, assurance of personal freedoms, and equal rights and treatment.
Over the next years, every Bright Caper will make a monthly donation to the foundation, empowering us to improve the quality of life for those in need.
Each year, we will prioritize a key theme within the realm of human sustainability, with 2024 dedicated to combatting poverty in the Netherlands. Our employees are in the lead; everyone can suggest a good cause that is close to their heart. Additionally, we will encourage and support Bright Capers in their own efforts to raise funds for a good cause, such as the participation in charity runs.
With the Bright Cape foundation, we were able to financially support these organizations in their mission to support the once most in need:
