Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page to support the 2017 Thomson Reuters Foundation Ambassador Challenge!

Every year, the Thomson Reuters Foundation launches a global competition open to all full time employees of Thomson Reuters with the goal of finding one exceptional individual to act as its Ambassador both within and outside the company. I was chosen as a finalist from out of 150 applicants and have a short time to make a BIG impact! 

The challenge offers a unique opportunity for members of the Thomson Reuters community to raise awareness of the Foundation, as well as fundraise for the scholarship program to its flagship annual event, the Trust Conference, formerly Trust Women, which is the world’s leading forum in the fight against slavery and trafficking. This scholarship program enables individuals who fight slavery and defend human rights across the world to attend the conference at no cost.

Please help me in supporting our amazing Foundation and for making a difference in the fight to create a safer and better world. Your support will go a long way and I would be honored if I am selected as the 2017 TR Foundation Ambassador.  Your donation will go directly to supporting the Scholarship Program 

The Trust Conference Scholarship Programme funds frontline activists and human rights defenders from across the world to attend the annual conference. In 2016, we received applications from 90 countries and selected Scholars from developing nations with expert knowledge of our conference themes.

This year, we will award up to 60 scholarships to applicants from diverse disciplines that will bring unique perspectives and help forge tangible commitments at Trust Conference. For global leaders who want to connect and take action, the prestigious Trust Conference Scholarship Programme offers access to an influential gathering of NGOs, heads of corporations, lawyers, public servants and philanthropists from around the world.

Thank you for making a difference , Heather
