Community & Charities

We aim to make a positive contribution to the quality of life in the communities where we operate.

Our community investment guidelines provide that we focus on local environmental improvement and provision of free transport for community activities. In addition to this activity across our corporate and licensee network, we support UNICEF on a variety of projects. We also support initiatives which are particularly important to local staff.

Some of our 2008 projects have included:

supporting a road safety project for school children in Germany;

collecting food for Christmas on behalf of NGO Caritas;

fundraising for a cancer care charity in the UK;

the renovation of a forest path in Hungary;

the establishment of a partnership with Action Aid in Italy; and

fundraising for the Portuguese Community against Aids (Portugal).

In addition, we supporting employee volunteering and fundraising:

where staff commit to voluntary work for a charitable organisation in Barcelona, the Avis contact centre makes a quarterly contribution; and

in our headquarters we match sponsorship funding for individual and team efforts.
