Social Contribution Activities
Received a letter of appreciation from the Japanese Red Cross Society Tochigi Branch for cooperation in blood donation activities at JSP plants
Every year, JSP participates in blood donation activities by the Japanese Red Cross Society. In 2022, we cooperated in blood donation activities at the Hokkaido Plant and Kanuma Plants. Prior to starting activities, we held activities in our offices to encourage cooperation and raise awareness for blood donation. The number of participants is increasing every year. The Kanuma Plants received a letter of appreciation from Tochigi Branch of the Japanese Red Cross Society for Blood Donation Merit Award 2022 at the Tochigi Prefectural Hall on July 25, 2022.
This letter of appreciation is presented to companies, organizations, and individuals that cooperate with the activities of the Japanese Red Cross Society. The Kanuma Plants’ long history of cooperation in blood donation activities and implementation of activities during the COVID-19 pandemic were highly evaluated. We will continue to cooperate in blood donation activities as part of our social contribution activities in order to realize our corporate philosophy "Creatively and Actively Contribute to Society."
Providing tableware to a children’s cafeteria
In April and July 2022, JSP Packaging Corporation, a Group company that manufactures and sells food containers, provided food containers for use at Kodomo Shokudo Machi no Gohanya san (a children’s cafeteria organization). This organization provides food support to needy households such as households on child rearing allowances and welfare households in Konosu City, Saitama Prefecture.
These activities are operated by the NPO Niko Niko mama’s. The activities are held at a cafeteria in Konosu City, and are open to participation by anyone. The cafeteria serves local children and their guardians so that they can enjoy meals while interacting with others. The activities also include dietary education by a registered dietician for conveying the importance of food. A total of about 300 people participated in two events in which JSP Packaging provided food containers.
Yokkaichi No.1 Plant and Yokkaichi Research Center received a letter of appreciation for donating emergency food
The Yokkaichi No.1 Plant and the Yokkaichi Research Center in Mie Prefecture stockpile emergency food in preparation for emergencies. As part of activities, we sequentially replace emergency food which is nearing its expiration date, and we donate emergency food that is close to the expiration date.
By selecting donation recipients using matching software operated by Mie Prefecture, we were able to deliver emergency food to a wide range of people, including children’s cafeterias, support for the needy, and volunteer activities. In October 2022, we received a letter of appreciation from Mie Prefecture for these activities.
Donated 100,000 sheets of paper to support French schools
In December 2022, JSP International S.A.R.L., a Group company in France, donated 100,000 sheets of paper to support schools in Estrées-Saint-Denis, with the aim of promoting the growth and education of children.
This meaningful donation not only contributes to the local community, but also provides an excellent opportunity for an experience of “Deliver with WOW!” through effective learning opportunities for children. JSP International S.A.R.L. also received a message of gratitude from the mayor of Lucette. This message was introduced in the local newspaper.
Afterwards, we received letters of thanks from the children. The letters are now displayed in the plant office.
