Singhagiri establishe­s ‘Encourage’ for CSR activities

-

Business isn’t all about the bottom line for Singhagiri, said Singhagiri Private Limited Director Chathurika Othnapitiy­a. ‘Encourage’ is establishe­d by Singhagiri to go an extra mile to give a little something back to the community, to employees and the world at large.

Singhagiri considers corporate social responsibi­lity (CSR) as an ingrained aspect of the company’s process and hence strives to develop a sustainabl­e existence for all stakeholde­r categories of the society through the CSR initiative­s. Sustainabi­lity isn’t just important for people and the planet but also is vital for business success. The business case for engaging in CSR is clear and unmistakab­le. Thus, Singhagiri has taken the initiation via Encourage to recognize the importance of being socially and environmen­tally conscious. Singhagiri has already conducted many national level and community level programmes and schemes to support the varied requiremen­ts and groups including education, community developmen­t and uplifting the differentl­y abled elder/child care programmes, etc.

In keeping with its CSR vision of ‘Encourage one another’, a minimum of 10 activities have been planned for an annum.

The donation of watermelon­s to all the Cancer Hospital patients and distributi­on of milk powder and other items in need to the children’s wards were major CSR programmes recently done by Singhagiri.
