Today’s businesses are increasingly taking into account the social and environmental impact of their activities, and not just limited to profits. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), is a strategy for running a company that takes into account social, environmental and ethical actions.

Fordata meets CSR

Fordata has been committed to modern and sustainable solutions since its inception. By providing virtual data room services, we reduce the need for business travel and reduce the use of paper, which has a direct impact on reducing our carbon footprint and supports environmental protection. As a responsible company, Fordata fully understands the importance of CSR and is actively involved in social and environmental projects as part of our long-term strategy.

Supporting the Dare2Dream initiative

One of the key projects we have been involved in is Dare2Dream, an initiative that improves the lives of women in Mathare, a deprived area of Nairobi. Dare2Dream is a sewing center that not only offers jobs, but also gives women mothers a chance for a better life.

Fordata became involved in this project in several ways. Firstly, we decided to order travel backpacks as part of the ‘Women for Women’ by Fordata campaign we are activating. We donate the backpacks to our customers while promoting support for the women of Mathare. However, our involvement does not stop there. We sponsor the day-to-day running costs of the sewing room, including rent, electricity and internet fees, to ensure the sustainability of this initiative. We have also recently supported mothers working in the sewing room by purchasing cots for their children, allowing them to work in peace in a safe environment.

We believe that our support not only supports Dare2Dream’s work, but also contributes to the well-being of the entire community. We encourage our partners and customers to get involved in the project, for example by ordering personalised products or promoting the initiative to friends.

Volunteering and support for the Gajusz Foundation

Activities for local initiatives are another important element of our CSR strategy. Fordata’s employees have the opportunity to participate in charitable actions as part of their extra days off. One of the organisations we have recently supported is the Gajusz Foundation – an institution that runs a hospice for children suffering from incurable diseases.

Our team helped with cleaning work in the foundation’s garden and also funded the purchase of a lawnmower to make the place as child-friendly as possible. The Gajusz Foundation supports more than 1,000 children every year, offering them and their families psychological help and support in their most difficult moments. For us, cooperation with such an organisation is extremely important, as we believe that working together for social good can change the world.

Green initiative – planting trees

In the interests of the environment, we have launched a tree planting programme. For every contract signed with us, we plant a new tree. Each of our customers will receive a certificate confirming their participation in this initiative, which not only allows us to strengthen our business cooperation, but also gives a real contribution to the greening of Poland.

This programme is our commitment to caring for the environment and the balance of ecosystems. We believe that small steps, such as planting trees, have a big impact on future generations. We want every collaboration with Fordata to contribute not only to business success, but also to the creation of a better, greener world.

CSR is our shared responsibility

At Fordata, we believe that every action matters. That’s why our CSR projects support local and international communities and help build a better world. We thank you for working together – thanks to your commitment we can act on an even bigger scale.

Together, we can make a difference.
