For purposes including environmental conservation and support for raising the next generation, Sekisui Chemical Group provides economic support including donations to a variety of activities. Its donations in fiscal 2011 totaled approximately 228 million yen.
A typical example of such support is the matching gifts the company provides in amounts equal to or surpassing donations collected from employees in response to disasters and other needs.
In fiscal 2011, as aid for victims of the flooding in Thailand, Sekisui Chemical donated 10 million yen, and donated a matching gift of 1.2 million yen to the government of Thailand in recognition of approximately 1.1 million yen donated from employees.
In addition, since some employees of the Group member company Kydex, LLC. in North America were victims of the flooding that occurred near Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, where Kydex, LLC. is located, Sekisui America Corporation donated a matching gift of $3,200 to the American Red Cross in recognition of donations from employees of Group companies in North America.
