Kaplan Business School in the community

Kaplan Business School helps students achieve their educational and career goals.

Kaplan Professional supports three educational charities with fundraising, scholarships and professional support: CARE International, The Helena Kennedy Foundation and Every Child a Chance Trust.

After three years (2006-8) of successful fundraising by Kaplan employees and clients participating in the Three Peaks Challenge, Kaplan Professional changed tack in 2009 by organising the first annual Mountain Marathon – a hike the distance of a marathon, scaling Wales’ three highest mountains. The participating teams raise funds for the following charities:

CARE International is one of the world’s leading organisations fighting poverty in developing countries. Our fundraising supports CARE’s educational projects in India, including improving the quality of impoverished schools and literacy rates of female students.

The Helena Kennedy Foundation's mission is to tackle injustice and social exclusion through education by supporting disadvantaged students from the further and adult education sectors to complete their studies in higher education and move successfully into employment.

Every Child a Chance aims to unlock the educational potential of socially disadvantaged children through the development and promotion of early intervention programmes in literacy and numeracy.
