Cisco x Hearty – from passion to inspiring and supporting

Empower Together is a joint initiative of Cisco and Hearty Foundation

The initiative was born from the need to share what is most valuable – time, experience, and mindfulness. The project is aimed at children and youth in Kraków who are under the care of the Foundation and face the challenges of social exclusion on a daily basis.

Over the course of several months, Cisco volunteers create a safe space with young people for growth, integration, and empowerment. Joint workshops, meetings, activities, and trips are not only an opportunity to share knowledge, but—most importantly – to be present. Present with young people, their needs, dreams, and questions about the future.

Why do we do it?

Because we believe that a relationship with another person can truly change their perspective.

Because we know that meeting adults who listen, support, and inspire leaves a lasting impression.

Because together we can achieve more – Empower Together is not just a name. It’s action.

How can you get involved?

As a Cisco volunteer, you can:

  • participate in regular activities with children at the Foundation’s headquarters,

  • share your passions, experience, and positive energy – if you have a passion you’d like to share, we’ll organize a session with the children where you can inspire them and encourage their development,

  • be part of the Giving Back event, which celebrates shared values and actions.

Listen to Daniel and Karolina, Cisco volunteers, talk about their volunteering experience!
