Background

Since its inception in December 2000, the Foundation has given more than $40 million USD to more than 1,525 charitable programs globally. We help the Asia Foundation educate and empower migrant women in Jintang County, China. We give homeless children in Mumbai, India, a new life through the Vatsalya Foundation. We’ve generated nearly $1.5 million to help survivors of Hurricane Katrina in the United States, and nearly $2 million—in immediate relief and for rebuilding—to help the survivors of the 2004 tsunami. We also donated to the survivors of the earthquakes in Indonesia and Pakistan in 2005 and 2006.

The Western Union Foundation is truly local—regardless of city, country or even continent.
