    As we started here on the forum a little initiative with our virtual museum,
    IWC came with a great idea ; Time well Shared.

    As the world faces a health crisis, the global IWC family stands together for
    the launch of "TIME WELL SHARED". Through this initiative, IWC employees,
    brand ambassadors and partners will share their time, knowledge, experience
    and passion through digital channels. They aim to inspire people to make the
    most of their time, and entertain and support them by keeping them connected
    and engaged.

    "TIME WELL SHARED" encompasses online lectures, speeches and webinars that IWC
    will publish on digital channels during the following weeks. The aim is to
    entertain and support people in these difficult times. The initiative will
    include contributions from IWC brand ambassadors like Tom Brady, Fabian
    Cancellara, David Coulthard and Maro Engel and partners such as Mercedes-AMG
    Petronas Formula 1, Tottenham Hotspur, Laureus Sport for Good, Antoine de
    Saint Exupery Youth Foundation, Solaris Yachts and Orlebar Brown.

    For example, Pilot Matt Jones will share memories of last year's "Silver
    Spitfire - The Longest Flight" expedition. Retired US Navy Captain and TOPGUN
    pilot Jim DiMatteo will elaborate on Navy Fighter Squadron values like
    performance, resilience and precision in business. Closer to home, David
    Seyffer, curator of the IWC Museum, will give insights into the history of
    IWC, and former Director of Marketing and Sales, Hannes Pantli, will divulge
    some never-before-told IWC stories.

    All contributions are accompanied by a button to make voluntary donations,
    with IWC making the first donation. With the funds raised, IWC will support
    Save the Children. Save the Children aims to strengthen its programmes that
    protect children and families in countries that are hit by the virus, increase
    support for national health systems, and raise awareness among parents and
    caregivers on how to provide psychosocial support to children.

    And also : As part of its recently announced "TIME WELL SHARED" initiative,
    IWC Schaffhausen will promote a personal volunteering program for its
    employees. In their own free time, and on an individual and voluntary basis,
    employees are encouraged to offer online tutoring support for schoolchildren
    in basic subjects, such as mathematics or foreign languages. The goal is to
    support young people and their parents who are studying at home due to the
    current situation. The free online tuition will be facilitated by Good Tutors
    Finder, an international Tutoring Services company.
