Why not be a catalyst for change and join our determined family of philanthropists, trusts, and foundations committed to supporting young people to fulfil their potential.
With your support, we can equip more young people with the life skills, confidence, and resilience they need to thrive in today’s world. Investing in the DofE is an investment in a future that benefits both individuals and communities.
“DofE is an embodiment of everything Pears Foundation believes in. By empowering young people to drive their own success and offering a focus for their endeavours, DofE is investing in their lives for the long term. What they learn here stays with them as they find their path in life, whether that’s their education, their career, or the community they live in. This is an investment in the UK’s next generation, delivered at the right time and in the right way.”
– Sir Trevor Pears CMG, Executive chair of the Pears Foundation
Knowing the impact the Award has had on our own children; we’ve always been keen to ensure the DofE is accessible to all young people. Our committed, multi-year funding provides targeted packages of support to young people, schools, and centres, and we can clearly see the very deep impact it’s having. We are delighted to enjoy such a close relationship with the DofE.
