The DJK Group promotes activities to enrich the society and strives to contribute to the local communities.
Donation from Our Emergency Stockpile
The Group implements a program to donate from its emergency stockpile long-life water, food, and other items that have about one year left before their best-before date to food bank organizations (Second Harvest Japan,* etc.).
Food banks engage in activities to give away food and other items that have no problem in terms of quality but cannot be consumed due to packaging defects, nearing best-before date, or other reasons, to welfare facilities and people in need. The Group will continue this program as part of its social contribution activities in the hope that donations to these organizations will lead to a better society.
* A non-profit organization stablished in 2002 that works under the philosophy of “Food for all people.”
Disaster Relief Contributions
When massive natural disasters, such as earthquakes, tsunami, and storm and flood damage, occur in Japan or overseas, we make contributions to disaster relief funds to rescue disaster victims and provide support for the recovery and reconstruction of the disaster-stricken areas. The Company has established guidelines as criteria for making disaster relief contributions, which enables contributions to be made quickly and fairly. We discuss and determine contribution amounts internally according to these guidelines, and also conduct activities to collect donations from officers and employees.
While hoping for recovery and reconstruction as soon as possible, we will provide support so that we can be of some help to the activities in disaster-stricken areas.
