Social Contribution Activities

Good corporate citizenship is part of the NEC culture, supported by strong leadership and the commitment of employees. Under the slogan: "Nature, Education, Community: The Heart of NEC", we play a vital role in promoting activities in the areas of Earth Conservation, Education, Social Welfare and Arts, Culture, and Sports with a primary focus on the communities we serve.
Since 1999, NECHK has joined NEC "Make-a-Difference Drive" campaign - a global initiative encouraging NEC employees worldwide to participate in their local community activities - to make significant and meaningful contribution to our community. Years to years, we have actively involved in a wide and diverse range of social services and charitable activities, providing financial and other kinds of support to address the needs of the less privileged members of the communities in which we operate. Our efforts are well recognized and appreciated by the society with the award of the Caring Company logo presented by the Hong Kong Council of Social Service for the 5th consecutive year since 2002.

2007		Global warming is a critical issue nowadays. To increase the awareness of this issue among staff and spread the message on environmental conservation to our family members specially the young generation, we have hosted a tree planting day at the Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden in hope of re-establishing the tree covers at the hill slope of Tai Mo Shan, the highest mountain in Hong Kong. There were totally 60 staff and family members joined this event. Through the activity, we all realized that tree planting was not an easy task and our every effort to support the environmental protection is indispensable to build a greener and fresher world.
2007		Caring the community is one of the core values of NECHK. This time, NECHK has allied with 3 other NEC group companies and partnered with Paraplegic & Quadriplegic Associations Ltd (P&Q) to organize a 2-day "Wrapping Rice Dumpling with Love" program. On the one day, our employee volunteers and the P&Q members jointly wrapped the rice dumplings. On the other day, we shared these dumplings with the elderly in need. This meaningful event not only enhanced the communication between NEC group staff but let us learn that there was no difference between the physical disabled and us. In some occasions, they are even more enthusiastic in getting the task done and more passionate to helping people.
2006		NECHK and 2 other NEC group companies have jointed with Senior Citizen Home Safety Association to organize a dinner party for 84 live-alone elderly. During the party, volunteers and the elderly were enthusiastically involved in the games. Having cooperated with one another, all teams completed the games successfully with joy. Through this event, our employee volunteers gained valuable experience in communicating with the elderly as well as understanding their needs - caring is more important than material comforts.
2005		NECHK has cooperated with The Hong Kong Joint Council of Parents of the Mentally Handicapped to conduct an orienteering with mentally handicapped youths. This orienteering is very challenging to both employee volunteers and the youths. Through the orienteering activities, both parties gained invaluable experience on teamwork and built an entire trust to each other. Moreover, we understood that, to build an integrated community, caring to and acceptance on people with different abilities and backgrounds are definitely important.
