The OCS Foundation is an independent grant-giving and fundraising charity. We&#8217;re relaunching with a focus on creating opportunities for children and young people facing disadvantage across the UK and Ireland.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">OCS initially established the Foundation in 2014, this relaunch comes as a result of <a href=\"https:\/\/ocs.com\/uk\/news\/atalian-servest-and-ocs-merger\/\">the merger in 2023<\/a>. Since 2014, the Foundation has built a legacy of addressing poverty by investing in socially and economically disadvantaged community members. In 2023, we piloted our pioneering <a href=\"https:\/\/ocs.com\/uk\/about-ocs\/people-into-work\/\">\u2018People into Work\u2019 programme.<\/a> Presently, the programme has helped over 680 individuals secure valuable, sustainable employment. These life-changing outcomes are now a core part of OCS\u2019s social value commitments.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>A new chapter<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the relaunch, the OCS Foundation is reaffirming our purpose to positively impact as many children and young people as possible, providing them with opportunities to thrive. The Foundation\u2019s mission is clear\u2014children and young people should have no limits to their potential, their dreams, and no limits in their lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Recognising the barriers many children and young people face, whether through illness, poverty, exclusion, or unstable family environments, the OCS Foundation supports causes, projects, and charities that offer safety, skills, wellbeing support, and real pathways to a brighter future. By leveraging the strength and reach of OCS, the Foundation empowers individuals through mental health support, education, skills development, and community activities, ensuring a lasting impact.<\/p>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section x-data=\"video\" id=\"block_acf-block-682daece7b097\" class=\"grid gap-4\">\n                    <picture>\n                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/ucarecdn.com\/60a4792c-a98a-47e4-afe5-40bbbd245ea1\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/quality\/smart\/-\/preview\/768x768\/\" media=\"(max-width: 640px)\" type=\"image\/jpg\">\n                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/ucarecdn.com\/60a4792c-a98a-47e4-afe5-40bbbd245ea1\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/quality\/smart\/-\/preview\/1024x1024\/\" type=\"image\/jpg\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ucarecdn.com\/60a4792c-a98a-47e4-afe5-40bbbd245ea1\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/quality\/smart\/-\/preview\/1024x1024\/\" class=\"w-full h-full object-cover object-center rounded-3xl\" alt=\"A group of people wearing white OCS Colour Run shirts, some with colored powder on their clothes and faces, stand smiling behind an OCS Foundation banner at an outdoor event.\">\n            <\/picture>\n                    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section \n        id=\"block_acf-block-682daece7b0b5\" \n        class=\"text-[#475467] prose-h1:font-semibold prose-h1:mb-10 prose-headings:font-medium prose prose-ocs prose-li:pl-0 w-full max-w-none\n        \"\n        style=\"background-color: #FFFFFF;\"\n    >\n        <h4 style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Key initiatives and values<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The OCS Foundation\u2019s initiatives focus on three core areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wellbeing and inclusion:<\/strong> Promoting mental health, physical wellbeing, and social inclusion.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Education and skills development:<\/strong> Supporting access to learning, training, career pathways, and sporting opportunities.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Community support:<\/strong> Partnering with organisations to deliver meaningful local impact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Foundation has begun work to invest in both immediate support and long-term solutions for young people.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Collective Commitment and Leadership<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The OCS Foundation is led by a dedicated board of trustees.
