About Deutsche Post DHL

The Deutsche Post and DHL corporate brands represent a one-of-a-kind portfolio of logistics (DHL) and communications (Deutsche Post) services. The Group provides its customers with both easy to use standardized products as well as innovative and tailored solutions ranging from dialog marketing to industrial supply chains.

Lacking quality in education and educational systems is a global challenge. To meet this challenge, Deutsche Post DHL launched its GoTeach program which, together with experienced partners in the field of education, aspires to the vision that one day, all children will have the opportunity to attain an excellent education.
In September 2010, building on the positive experiences gathered during our two-year partnership with Teach First Deutschland, we set up a partnership with Teach For All.
Our main objective in this partnership is to support the growth and development of the Teach For All network, making a contribution to the global improvement of curricula. Besides financial donations, we will give our employees the opportunity to personally contribute to better education through various voluntary activities. Whether by mentoring Teach For All teachers, providing support for schools through school supply drives or asking our colleagues to participate in various volunteering activities, we are making our objective of contributing to educational success and living responsibility a reality.
Initially, we will be working with the existing national Teach For All partner organizations in Peru, Chile, Argentina and India, while in Spain and Brazil, we will help to set up new national Teach For All partner organizations.
