The Foundation supports projects proposed and managed by HE Space employees.
Support is given in the form of financial backing of up to €5,000, and advice on issues of organisation and budget.
We welcome project proposals from employees to support education in any geographical location except for war zones or disaster areas. Sadly in these areas, specialist agencies are best placed to support teachers, parents and children.
Although we have provided financial support to individuals in the past - for example in the form of a scholarship - we are more focussed in general on projects which reach a larger group of children (a class or a school or other educational institution). We feel here we can make the greatest impact.
An important part of the employee scheme is the requirement that the employee presents a project with a defined ‘head’ and ‘tail’, to ensure proper follow through and that the employee gets the full experience of project management.
