At Biocon, we believe our investment in better healthcare must go beyond developing new medicine to making medical assistance accessible to less advantaged, rural communities of India. Executing our corporate-social responsibility through the Biocon Foundation, we have adopted an integrated outreach strategy that focuses on social change and empowerment of rural communities through public health, sanitation and education programs. Public Healthcare Public Health Arogya Raksha Yojana Health Micro-insurance Scheme (ARYMIS) Launched in February 2005 in collaboration with Narayana Hrudayalaya Hospital and ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company, ARYMIS provides high quality, yet affordable healthcare to economically weaker urban and rural communities.

Medicines are distributed distrib uted free of cost at allcamps. In 2008, we look forward to inaugurating four more ARY Clinics bringing the total number to 12.Greater awareness of diabetes related problems and their prevention is of critical importance, especially in India today. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF),every 30 seconds a person loses a limb to amputation following diabetes complications.

Governments alone cannot meet the basic needs of the people and this has prompted the Bank to take up community development projects like JALAYOGA. The Bank through its operating mechanism identifies the areas for implementation of the scheme. The necessary land is allotted/granted by the Village Panchayat/ Village Development Committee. The Bank funds the project and implements through its branches. A sum of Rs. 3.00 lakhs per project is released and any extra cost towards the project is to be borne by the local bodies.

An additional grant of Rs. 10,000/- is provided for promotion of developmental activities like literacy classes, health care, cleanliness campaign, tree planting, sanitation, drainage and other extension programmes. The role of animator is catalytic in nature to bring about socio-economic transformation in the community. The scheme has been implemented in about 390 SC/ST colonies. 5.

CSR activities: Our contribution to the community around the factory takes the form of welfare programmes. One such programme is to ensure safe surroundings for people to live and work in. Ecofriendly production processes, not using carcinogenic Azo class dyes and running a modern effluent treatment plant, are some of the ways through which we keep the environment pollution free.
None See Green. Think Green. Act Green. We have pioneered the use of Eco-friendly Refrigerants in India. We have now designed systems with Hydrocarbons as refrigerants instead of Ozone depleting CFCs. Hydrocarbons like Butane, Propane, Propylene etc. are environmentally safe in the sense that they do not deplete Ozone nor do they contribute to Global Warming. We have also developed systems for using Coal Bed Methane from the huge coal deposits in our country and this translates into an incredible amount of Carbon Credits to the end users. Till recently this methane was flared into the atmosphere. This year, we saved 1.15 Million kWh through various Energy Conservation Methods/ projects, which is recurring savings in the years to come. That is helping in reducing 1150 tons of CO equivalent emission reduction. 2 Today, we are a major supplier in the sub-megawatt class with our gearboxes contributing to over 300 MW of Power Generation using renewable non-polluting Wind Power. Higher capacity MW class Gearboxes are under development to further support the cause of green energy. We have developed electric Screw Compressors with Variable Speed Drive to reduce the power consumption up to 35%. The product range available is from 30 KW to 160 KW capacity models. When 75% of life cycle cost is the Power Cost for Air Compressors, energy savings play a major role in terms of cost reduction at customer's end and Energy Conservation for the Nation. Besides global dimming and contamination of air and water, global warming is a reality today. A reality that threatens the very fabric of our existence. Our future, and that of our children is at stake. Being an industrial group that values the highest standards of eco-responsible co-existence, we at Kirloskar are committed towards enabling an enriching future. And yet, this future is rife with challenges. It is in these challenges that your company sees immense opportunity. Opportunity that will create new business paradigms. In a future that is green. Green. In vision. Thought. And deed.
Community Care - UK-MCF-TGB UK- MCF-TGB Gram Vikas Project As a responsible corporate citizen, responsive to the needs of the community around is our objective. The government of UK had, in 1975, granted an aid of Rs.40 lakhs under the Colombo Plan for overall development of villages in developing countries. Several villages were surveyed and finally Sanganakal village of Bellary district and Herur village of Raichur district were selected for overall up-liftment of the poor farmers of these villages with marginal land holdings. For this, a trust was formed under the name UK-MCF TGB-GRAMA VIKAS PROJECT.

CSR activities: What brings us MindTree Minds together in building an organization that has a unique culture is our value system. Every MindTree Mind is driven by CLASS, the acronym for our core values of Caring, Learning, Achieving, Sharing, and Social Responsibility. Everything we are, everything we do, and everything we believe in revolves around our CLASS values and the distinct culture that we have built. The two main attributes that characterize our culture, as our Chairman and Managing Director Ashok Soota says are high achievement orientation and high caring. Workplace Innovation in the physical infrastructure we provide takes many forms. Our space is brought to life with colourful paintings by children from the Spastics Society of India, providing visual stimulus and a source of inspiration to our people. Innumerable writable surfaces allow for spontaneous ideation and creative expression. An open-door policy, evinced by open floor plans and community areas, encourages a culture of trust and openness within the organization. Social sensitivity We at MindTree take a high-involvement, low-visibility approach to our social responsibilities. We make an active effort to integrate differently-abled people into the organization, treating them on par with other employees. Our leadership are members of Technologists for Social Action, a volunteer-based initiative that arranges regular trips to old age homes, orphanages, and a refugee home for kids of Sri Lankan refugees. We have also adopted a school in Dharmapuri, providing logistical, financial, and social support to its students and staff. To us, these initiatives are not marketing gimmicks; they are an integral part of our identity. Visual Identity Our visual identity is a differentiator in and of itself. Unlike most corporate brand identities, ours was designed by a differently-abled child rather than a graphic designer. Chetan K.S., a student of the school run by the Spastics Society of Karnataka, India, suffers from motor and speech disabilities associated with cerebral palsy. Like most persons afflicted with this disability, Chetan’s fine mind is trapped in a disobedient body. He was one of ten such students who listened to us as we explained our vision, our mission, and our value system. Each child then submitted an original work of art that represented the ideas that we wanted to convey; we chose Chetan’s masterful work as our visual identity. Chetan’s creation was presented to the world on August 18, 1999 in the form of our logo. The blue, red and bright yellow MindTree logo stands for the individual elements of our corporate DNA: Imagination, Action, and Joy. The decisive skyward, blue brush stroke communicates imagination. The red stands for action. The bright yellow bubbles represent joy
A) Message from CEO (Pg. 5, Annual Report 2007-08) We have used the same concepts to partner with schools and colleges to serve the communities we live in. A vibrant community is a vibrant us. Our employees have contributed more than 25,000 hours towards community initiatives. Our employees are working closely with several NGOs in the areas of education of underprivileged children. We serve our community initiatives with a sense of humility and are privileged to have contributed to associations such as Swadhar, Jagruti Seva Sanstha, American India Foundation’s digital equalizer program and Junior Achievement initiative. We have tasked ourselves to ensure that our workforce comprises colleagues from differently abled members of the society. Our offices are designed to accommodate special needs of such members of our workforce. B) MphasiS’ing Community Involvement (Pg. 6-7, Annual Reprot 2007-08) Corporate Social Responsibility, is core to the spirit of MphasiS and as a company, we strive to contribute richly to the communities in which we live and work. Community Initiatives, at MphasiS, revolve around three key pillars • Primary education for the marginalized with focus on initiatives that enhance employability • Working with People with disabilities with focus on assimilation into the workforce • Encourage Employee volunteerism at MphasiS with focus on giving back to the community Looking back at 2007 Primary education for the marginalized with focus on initiatives that enhance employability MphasiS believes that quality education leads to improved learning, cognitive skills, creating a diverse pool of qualified and talented human resource. Through its initiatives in Education, MphasiS has positively impacted the life of over 9000 children spread across states like Maharashtra and Karnataka and locations where MphasiS is located. These initiatives are aimed at equipping children and youth with knowledge and skills to succeed in school and effectively launch themselves in a productive career. Our support to quality education is based on financial and service donation to non-profit organizations working in some of the most poverty stricken pockets of urban India. Our partners include NGOs like Each One Teach, Swadhar, Jagruti Seva Sanstha, American India Foundation and Junior Achievement. We reached out to 9000 children – benefiting them greatly. Of our funding, only 5% were incurred on administrative costs, making the program – direct, efficient and result oriented. Working with People with disabilities with focus on assimilation into the workforce Creating an inclusive and diverse workplace is key to our corporate mission. We, at MphasiS, believe that our work is suited for a talent pool that is yet unexplored and hence the focus on persons with disabilities. Between 2004 and 2006, we were able to hire 40 persons with disabilities. One of the reasons for low employment rate of people with disabilities is the lack of accessible educational and training facilities in the country. Even those who have completed their senior secondary or graduation have mostly done so either in local medium schools or through correspondence. As a result, they are unable to clear the test and interview rounds. Therefore, we felt the need to focus on increasing employability through an intensive and structured pre employment training, which would enable them to compete on equal footing with other candidates.

CSR activities: Corporate Social Responsibilities REL firmly believes that any amount of economic progress is meaningless and incomplete without balanced social development. Economic prosperity is a goal for a small percentage of people, but balanced social development is an absolute necessity for the entire humanity. REL is always willing and ready to contribute its might, in whatever possible manner towards social development. As one of the social responsibilities REL believes in training and developing less privileged, wanting people. Towards striking a corporate balance REL always reserves portion of its employment opportunities for enthusiastic capable people with lower educational qualifications. Training the lower qualified people is a constantly carried out process at REL and this process apart from contributing to the social responsibility has paid rich dividends to REL professionally and commercially. Some of the high ranking officials of REL and current champions of the industry were enthusiastic but non qualified people at the time of their recruitment into REL. With proper training and hand holding, REL has been able to develop these people as an asset for the company and torch bearers of the jewellery industry. REL firmly believes in cultivating people who want to work but are not fortunate enough to acquire the right qualification for various reasons. REL also involves itself in many social, educational and community causes on a regular basis. REL believes in conducting these activities discreetly. Community Happiness and enjoyment of the people is as important as the economic growth. Globally people strive hard to achieve economic success to ensure happiness and enjoyment for themselves and for people around them. In the blind pursuit of financial one-upmanship, a part of humanity has lost sight of the actual happiness and joy. The ultimate aim and the reason of all economic activity is to ensure a safe and a happy life. REL firmly believes and wants its people to participate in activities and programs which bring joy, happiness and fulfillment. REL conducts and sponsors various religious, sports and environmental awareness activities which bring happiness and joy to its people and also to the other members of public. For the benefit of its people REL conducts annual VISHWAKARMA DAY festivities at the manufacturing facility premises which are attended by thousands of people. On this day various sports and cultural competitions are conducted among its people and their families. Special events are conducted for young children.

Life is a celebration. A reason enough to raise a toast and party! So sipping your drink and getting high on life is great indeed, as long as you drink and enjoy responsibly! USL defines responsible drinking as legal, considerate and conscious. United Spirits has a strong commitment towards spreading the message of enjoying and drinking responsibly. Over the years, United Spirits has led several campaigns and undertaken a variety of activities to popularize the message: * At USL, we ensure that our marketing and communication strategies are responsible and informative, aimed at creating awareness in our consumers. * We abide by all the guidelines and codes as specified by the law. * We constantly endeavor to create awareness about responsible drinking through our advertising campaigns. * We support and spread the “ No drunken driving ” message through all points of purchase material, packaging and other promotional avenues available to reach the customers. Responsible Communication In the year 2006, United Spirits Limited (USL) in collaboration with Confederation of Indian Beverage & Alcohol Companies (CIBAC), embarked on a campaign, as a part of the 'Enjoy Responsibly' awareness program, which featured essential messages such as: 'No drunken driving', 'No excessive drinking' or 'Counting your drinks', 'No underage drinking'. The same message was also implemented in the TVC and Radio campaigns. The message "Don't drink and drive" was aired repeatedly followed by an SMS number 3636. In a unique strategy to prevent drunk driving, the SMS number was provided for people to avail cab services if drunk, in all the 6 major metros. Party Responsibly To make your party a rocking success, here are some Do's and Don'ts that make for Drinking and Enjoying Responsibly. # Prepare yourself If you are sure that you will be drinking a lot, hydrate your body by drinking fresh juice before leaving for the party. # Eat drink & make sense Don't go on a drinking spree. Eat before and while drinking. This slows down alcohol absorption. # Count your drinks Be the master of your mind and don't be enslaved by any addictions. Set your limits. Count your drinks and stop when you reach your limit. # Drink but don't get drunk Getting drunk at a party smells cheap. Drunken behavior can damage your reputation and affect your life socially, personally and also professionally. # Party real A party is not just about drinking and eating. It's about socializing and meeting people. Interact with people, laugh, joke and sing.

Wipro Cares is an initiative by the Wiproites, their family members and friends to contribute in the areas of education, community and social development. Wipro Cares philosophy is to utilize the collective wisdom of volunteers to bring long term benefits and satisfaction to the community, as we believe that providing funds alone will not help the community.This is a unique corporate experiment to channelise the contributions of the Wiproites matched by Wipro, and the desires of Wiproites to make meaningful contributions to society, on a continuous basis. Wipro Cares contributes through two pronged strategy: providing rehabilitation to survivors of natural calamities and enhancing learning abilities of children from the under privileged sections of the society Leaning enhancement :Wipro Cares has initiated Learning Enhancement Programmes at schools catering to the children from the under privileged section of the society. The main objectives of this programme is to improve the standards of learning, build confidence, ignite curiosity, broaden their awareness levels, improve their communication skills in English , build a healthy self-esteem and help them break through self imposed limits to achieve his/her greatest potential.In line with its focus, these programmes have been successfully implemented in Olcott Memorial School in Besantnagar, Chennai and Government Secondary School in Viveknagar, Bangalore. The Olcott Memorial School in Besantnagar, Chennai is a 110 years old Tamil medium school run by the theological Society. Wipro Cares volunteers work with the students of classes 4 and 5 (total strength -120 children), for about two hours on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of every month. The Government Secondary School in Viveknagar, Bangalore in run in three different languages-Tamil, Telegu and Kannada.Volunteers who are comfortable in communicating in one of these languages take up the responsibility of each class where they devote 2 hours every Saturday. The volunteers work with children from class 2 onwards.As we go along, we plan to roll this programme in several more schools and in other cities. Wipro Cares volunteers devote 2 hours every Saturday with the ultimate desire to make learning fun for these children. Once the volunteer builds a good rapport with a group of three-four children, he or she would work on the holistic development of these children - to instill confidence among them, to build communication skills, encourage their creativity and thinking ability. Makkala Jagriti - Wipro Cares Learning Centre:A Learning Center focused on providing enriching, exciting, safe and secure environment to children from under privileged sections of the society was inaugurated by Makkala Jagriti, and Wipro Cares in Bangalore.

They can get involved by interacting, involving, teaching & learning in mutually enriching way to reach quality-learning environment to the economically disadvantaged children in an integrated manner through the Learning Centre.. Summer Camp for Children : The idea of interacting with the children of the school using creative and innovative ways such as arts, crafts and other fun activities appealed to the Wipro Cares volunteers. It had two fold objectives: First, to stay in touch with the children that they were involved with during the summer break. Second, to make the summer holidays enjoyable for these children, who would otherwise have to spend time playing with mud and sand outside their homes, when their parents go to work. The activities also brought forth the hidden talents of these children (and the volunteers!) be it story telling with hand puppets, painting or clay modeling. A group of volunteers took on the additional responsibility of organizing the camp, with the support of the administration. They planned out different activities every Saturday.The summer camps also helped these children develop their skills, confidence and motivation to succeed not just in classrooms but in life. Providing Basic Infrastructure at the School For a child to come regularly to the school and stay interested in school activities, it is necessary hat the school is equipped with proper infrastructure. Moreover, research has shown that lack of toilets facilities for girls is the main reason for the high drop out rates among students.In the Government School in Veveknagar, Bangalore-India, Wipro Cares has
Profitability is nowadays a main need in any company. But the truth is that profitability is not something that can be achieved and held onto only by itself. And here is where every company requires a fundamental resource: its people! In an economic environment always changing, moving and demanding, companies are starting to understand the responsibility of providing its employees with the methods to improve its personal and family life. This effort requires policies to answer the particular needs of each person working in the corporation. This kind of practice is not only beneficial for employees, but also for the companies, because it gives them the chance of attracting and retaining professional talents. A company engaged with its people - Advanta Semillas SAIC (Argentina) Following this trend, Advanta Semillas SAIC offers its employees' children in Argentina, for the fifth consecutive year, the Scholarship Program for Superior Studies. This scholarship consists of an economic contribution, paid between March and December, to be applied for all kinds of educational expenses. The scholarship is designated to those who are about to start superior studies, or for those who are already studying. First year students are all considered, having to prove in the following stages certain academic level to keep the scholarship. This benefit not only promotes superior education, but also the excellence and the spirit of effort and development. In the five years since this program was created, the company has not only perceived an increase of applications, but also has known the joy of seeing several of the scholarship holders get graduated in different specialities. The goal of the Advanta Scholarship Program is to contribute to the development and growth of its employees' children. It's through this benefit that Advanta Semillas SAIC shows the importance that the company gives to superior education, not only as a way to achieve academic but also as a way toadevelop the human spirit.
