C.S.R activities by Aditya Birla group

Our vision

"To actively contribute to the social and economic developmentof the communities in which we operate. In so doing, build a

better, sustainable way of life for the weaker sections of societyand raise the country's human development index."

Making a differenceBefore Corporate Social Responsibility found a place in

corporate lexicon, it was already textured into our Group'svalue systems. As early as the 1940s, our founding father ShriG.D Birla espoused the trusteeship concept of management.Simply stated, this entails that the wealth that one generates andholds is to be held as in a trust for our multiple stakeholders.With regard to CSR, this means investing part of our profits

beyond business, for the larger good of society.

While carrying forward this philosophy, our legendary leader,Mr. Aditya Birla, weaved in the concept of 'sustainablelivelihood', which transcended cheque book philanthropy. Inhis view, it was unwise to keep on giving endlessly. Instead, hefelt that channelizing resources to ensure that people have thewherewithal to make both ends meet would be more

productive. He would say, "Give a hungry man fish for a day,

he will eat it and the next day, he would be hungry again.Instead if you taught him how to fish, he would be able to feedhimself and his family for a lifetime."

Taking these practices forward, our chairman Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla institutionalised the concept of triple bottomline accountability represented by economic success,environmental responsibility and social commitment. In a

holistic way thus, the interests of all the stakeholders have beentextured into our Group's fabric.

Village meetings are held periodically to elicit feedback on the benefits of our community programmes and the areas wherethese need to be beefed up. We try and ensure that while in theshort term we have to do enormous hand-holding, the projects

become sustainable by the beneficiaries over the long haul.Once this stage is reached, we withdraw. In this way we do not

build a culture of dependence, instead we make the villagersself-reliant.

Model villagesone of our unique initiatives is to develop model villages, soeach of our major companies is working towards the total

transformation of a number of villages in proximity to our plants. Making of a model village entails ensuring self-reliancein all aspects viz., education, health care and family welfare,infrastructure, agriculture and watershed management, andworking towards sustainable livelihood patterns.Fundamentally, ensuring that their development reaches a stagewherein village committees take over the completeresponsibility and our teams become dispensable.

Of the 3,000 villages that we are engaged in, we have zeroed inon 300 villages that we hope to morph into model villages.Over a period of time, we expect to see a changed face of thesevillages. More than 80 villages in the hinterland have already

become model villages. From abject poverty to fulfilling thenecessities of life. From dependence to freedom. From

backwardness to progress in more ways than one.

Our project operations

the geographic reach, annual spendsthe footprint of our community work straddles 3,000 villagesacross the length and breadth of our country. We reach out tomore than 7 million people annually.
