DDB Cares

DDB Cares

Big hearts and big ideas are a great combination. At DDB we give back through our work and our people. We support the next generation through our talent programs -- sponsoring events, funding scholarships, offering internships and more. Our 200+ offices work within their local communities to have impact on relevant issues and opportunities.

Our featured effort:

The Looking Glass Foundations is dedicated to helping people with eating disorders. They came to DDB in Vancouver to find ways to change public misconceptions around eating disorders and to recognize them as the serious illnesses they are. The mixed-media campaign helped Looking Glass win the highly coveted British Columbia Association of Broadcasters Award – a gift of $1 million in broadcast media – and went a long way in achieving their goal.


StART Society, the brainchild of Datuk Vincent Lee, Executive Chairman of Foetus International, was formed to nurture and cultivate creative talents amongst children of the less fortunate. The society organizes and conducts structured and continuous programmes by providing art, music, drama, dancing and performing arts classes to underprivileged children from various shelter homes and orphanages.

StART provides these kids with consistent coaching, learning and mentoring in the different disciplines where lessons and workshops are delivered by talents and professionals from creative industries, including prominent corporate business heads from the Foetus Group.
