Since 2006, the Citizen of the World (COTW) program has connected TP with communities in need, helping improve lives through education, inclusion, disaster relief, and long-term support. Over the years, the program has raised more than €78 million to assist underprivileged populations and victims of crises. In 2024 alone, TP volunteers dedicated over 45,000 hours to community work. And through a growing $6 million global partnership with UNICEF, COTW continues to expand its reach, focusing on creating lasting change for children and families around the world.
This year’s winning projects are powerful reminders of what we can accomplish when we unite for good.
