Nestlé Pakistan extended corporate contribution worth PKR 5 million, as part of its philosophy of Creating Shared Value (CSV), to support Pakistan Red Crescent Society’s (PRCS) efforts towards social welfare and relief work.

Talking at the event, Jason Avanceña, CEO, Nestlé Pakistan said, “Our collaboration with PRCS over the years has taken many forms. Be it the organization of blood donation camps or partnering during COVID-19 response, we have depended on PRCS’ unmatched presence and expertise in providing first-aid and emergency response.

“We recognize that we have a responsibility to contribute to the well-being and development of the communities in which we operate. The corporate contribution we are presenting today is a testament to our commitment to supporting PRCS in your noble cause,” he said, adding that, Nestlé Pakistan believes in the philosophy of Creating Shared Value (CSV) where we collectively work towards a clear, common goal: to be a ‘force for good’. “

Sardar Shahid Ahmed Laghari, Chairman PRCS, said,

“We are deeply grateful to Nestlé Pakistan for their generous contribution. This donation will go a long way in supporting our efforts to alleviate the suffering of those affected by disasters. We appreciate Nestlé Pakistan’s commitment to creating shared value and their dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of the most vulnerable in our society.”
