Working in partnership<br />
Our vision can be achieved even more effectively through working with others. For <strong>Plan</strong>, this means working<br />
effectively in partnership with our sponsors, with other development organisations <strong>and</strong> with the private sector,<br />
to combine our expertise <strong>and</strong> learning.<br />

national level NGOs<br />
44,000 locally based<br />
organisations <strong>and</strong><br />

Child sponsors<br />
At <strong>Plan</strong>, 75 years of child sponsorship has<br />
helped us develop close links with many<br />
communities in developing countries. As well<br />
as providing us with an independent source of<br />
income (€363 million during 2012), sponsorship<br />
also contributes to our participation <strong>and</strong><br />
advocacy activities as sponsors share news<br />
of our work through social media.<br />
Partner organisations<br />
Forming partnerships with organisations at<br />
the local level is key to <strong>Plan</strong>’s work. In 2012,<br />
we worked with more than 44,000 communitybased<br />
organisations <strong>and</strong> more than 2,121<br />
local NGOs.<br />
The private sector<br />
The value of the private sector to international<br />
development is ever increasing <strong>and</strong> the nature<br />
of corporate responsibility is evolving from<br />
traditional philanthropy to a ‘shared value’<br />
approach. This brings many opportunities<br />
for <strong>Plan</strong>.<br />
In 2012, we had more than 500 corporate<br />
partners supporting <strong>Plan</strong>’s work.<br />
