"In the Netherlands, where there is little or no tradition of citizenship, Common Purpose has a difficult job: to engage individuals from all parts of the community, and inspire them to transform society."

Common Purpose International is indebted to its sponsors, without whom developments in new countries and cities would not be possible. Our aims are achieved in part by the gifts both in money and in kind that we receive.

We are particularly grateful to the following supporters:

  • Vodafone Global Foundation for their support of development in six new countries
  • The Financial Times
  • Department for International Development
  • Westminster Foundation for Democracy
  • The Robert Bosch Foundation
