**Vodafone Ireland has launched its annual World of Difference programme for the
next year.**

[World of Difference](http://www.vodafone.ie) funds an individual to work with a
charity they are passionate about with a salary award of **€40,000 for twelve months**,
plus some expenses.  Vodafone describes the programme as supporting social innovation
while giving someone the chance to answer their calling.

In 2012 Young Social Innovators, Threshold, Pieta and MS Ireland were beneficiaries
of the award. The programme has been running since 2007 and last year’s winners 
included Rob Walls who worked with housing charity Threshold helping them interpret
legislation and formulating strategies to protect tenants in rented accommodation.
