MTV Europe Foundation

The MTV Europe Foundation was established in 2003 by MTV Networks Europe to expanded its commitment to social issues and human rights. As a result, MTV Networks Europe launched the MTV Europe Foundation, a legally independent, but closely related, corporate charity. The MTV Europe Foundation is incorporated under United Kingdom law as a charitable company (UK Charity. No.1103267).

The MTV Europe Foundations’s aim is to use and maximise the power of MTV’s network and brand to educate and inform European youth, and adults, on critical social issues. The mission is:

* To educate young people on critical social issues, chiefly through the production and broadcast of special programming;
* To inspire young people to get involved and take action to address those and other issues; and
* To support organizations addressing these issues on the ground and to launch creative initiatives to promote and effect positive change.

The MTV Europe Foundation runs multimedia campaigns including the MTV EXIT campaign to fight human trafficking.
