Building a Better Future
The Building a Better Future pillar reflects Desmos’ commitment to supporting children, youth, and communities through access to education, enhanced employability, and the cultivation of active citizenship. Through specialized programs, we equip public schools, create employment opportunities for young people, and promote the values of volunteerism and social engagement.
Key programs under this pillar:
Desmos for Youth: Provides paid, one-year employment positions for young unemployed individuals up to the age of 30 in charitable organizations. The program strengthens participants’ skills and employability while empowering civil society organizations.
Desmos for Schools: Supports public schools with essential equipment and materials, focusing primarily on remote and under-resourced areas.
Teens for Teens: Fosters volunteerism and empowers teenagers by supporting initiatives tailored to their interests and abilities.
Back to School: provides fully equipped school bags and essential school supplies to children in need, helping them start the school year with the necessary resources.
Ι Care and Act: an educational programme implemented from 2015 to 2020, aimed at fostering volunteering, solidarity and active citizenship within school communities.
