NatSteel Holdings' corporate philosophy embraces
community giving and responsible environmental stewardship.
NatSteel's CSR Programme - 'Building Beyond Borders'
In Dec 2007, we launched our CSR programme, dubbed 'Building
Beyond Borders' or B3, with a pledge of $1 million over
the next three years to community initiatives. CSR is not new to NatSteel as we have been supportive
of charitable causes and playing an active role in environmental
matters since time immemorial. But with the launch of B3, there will be greater focus
and integration towards a more concerted effort at targeted focus
areas.
To kickstart this programme, we are focusing on Singapore's
disadvantaged first. Two focal areas have been identified: the
underprivileged elderly and education of needy children and youth. Cheques of $50,000 each were presented to
our adopted charities - St Joseph's Home and the Society for the
Physically Disabled.
