Epic Foundation: Helping transform lives and protect the planet
Posted by Carlota Vandekoppel on
We are proud to work with Epic as our local payroll giving partner and this year we sponsored both the London and Paris 2022 edition of Epic Nights Gala. The galas brought together an inspiring array of artists, influencers, tech and social entrepreneurs and leaders from around the world – all connected by a single mission of creating a better world.
Epic is a global foundation that exists to empower and protect children, youth and our planet. As such, Epic’s mission is strongly aligned with Bedrock’s philanthropic mission.
Through our sponsorship we are proud to contribute directly to the social organizations that the Epic Foundation supports around the world.
