Making a Difference Through Community Engagement

Migrant workers in Singapore smile after receiving gifts collected by Sivantos employees.

As we accelerate into 2019 and begin the countdown to Lunar New Year festivities, let’s take a moment to look at the difference that Sivantos has made in communities around the world in the past year:

We have supported more than 24 social campaigns, including activities such as food packing days to help end senior poverty in the US and earning a safe workplace certificate in Poland; a community building run in Singapore and free-of-charge seminars for the elderly in Japan. The list covers more than 13 different countries:

The Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer in Canada

End Senior Poverty Meal Packing in USA

The “Walk of Silence” Brazil

Our donation-matching program in the UK

Scholarships that Sivantos provides in Germany

Our new EH&S certified site in Poland

The Milan Marathon in Italy

Our free employee screening in South Africa,

Our cooperation with the Akshaya Patra Foundation to provide free meals for children in India

The Signia Colorful Sound project in China

Our participation in the Walkathon in Singapore

The Charity Bike Challenge in Australia

Or our Work with the Fuji Vision Aid Mission in Japan

None of these projects would have been possible without the help and dedication of our employees. The smallest gesture can grow into a transformative program. We are proud of all our employees who initiated projects in the past year.

According to the Chinese zodiac, we are now moving into the Year of the Pig. In some traditions, the pig represents an energetic, generous, and enthusiastic character that is balanced with a practical and realistic mindset. In many ways, this captures our vision for CSR in the year ahead.
