JAS and The Bruni Foundation Support Disaster Recovery

JAS and The Bruni Foundation are proud to partner with the Center for Disaster Philanthropy to support efforts that transform people’s lives during the long road to recovery after a disaster, providing hope for the days and months ahead.

The Bruni Foundation was established in 2018 by Mr. Biagio Bruni, founder of JAS. The Foundation is an integral part of JAS Worldwide. Its mission is to support social and environmental causes globally, guided by the motto “Charity Across Borders.” The foundation focuses on four key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: Quality Education, No Poverty, Clean Water and Sanitation, and Zero Hunger.

The foundation operates through two main initiatives:

  1. Partnerships with NGOs: Collaborating with organizations like CDP to support humanitarian and disaster assistance projects to help communities affected by humanitarian crises.
  2. PAY IT FORWARD Program: Encouraging JAS employees to volunteer for local community and environmental projects, with up to 16 hours of work annually dedicated to these initiatives.

The foundation aims to foster empathy, social responsibility and sustainable development worldwide.

In partnership with CDP, we give employees and other stakeholders the opportunity to make a difference by supporting meaningful projects and humanitarian causes that matter. The Bruni Foundation matches all donations to CDP

You can make a difference by donating through this page. The Bruni Foundation will cover the administration fee and MATCH your donation dollar for dollar. That means 100% of your gift will go to support disaster recovery. 

JAS employees can provide essential resources for preparedness and rebuilding in communities worldwide when and where investments are needed most through a general donation to CDP. You may also choose one of its active funds to support recovery from specific disasters.
