The Corporate & Community Angle
Why the World’s Leading Corporates are Pledging 1% to Build “Healthy Cities”
If the last few years have taught the corporate world anything, it’s that business continuity is entirely dependent on human health. A sick workforce, a stressed community, and a degrading environment are existential threats to any balance sheet.
Leading companies are realizing that traditional Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) isn’t enough anymore. To truly thrive, businesses must actively participate in creating the ecosystems where their employees, customers, and families live.
This is the driving force behind the WHIS 1% Healthy Pledge.
Integrating the Pillars of Wellbeing
Through the World Health Innovation Summit (WHIS), corporates can directly invest their 1% pledge into localized WHIS Cities programmes that yield tangible social returns:
- WHISAtWork: Implements strategic stress-management frameworks to combat corporate burnout.
- WHISKids & WHISSeniors: Creates a legacy of community care by supporting youth mental wellness and proactive healthy ageing.
- WHISGreen & WHISTech: Deploys sustainable environmental technologies and community-focused AI tools. As WHIS CEO Gareth Presch frequently emphasizes, “Technology alone does not transform health. People do—when they are equipped with the right tools, supported by trusted frameworks, and empowered within their communities.”
Turnkey Social Impact
WHIS removes the operational friction for corporate partners. Our platform handles everything from initial concept design and stakeholder convening to final execution and impact reporting—operating on a transparent 8-10% project management fee.
