Corporate Social Responsibility CANON

Education & Science
Canon India has been partnering with Indian Council of Child Welfare (ICCW) for last three years to felicitate and reward the National Bravery Award winners. In 2008, besides giving away Canon cameras; Canon offered free eye screening for all the award winners. This was done in partnership with Venu Eye Institute & Research centre.



Local Communities
Since 2005, every year a one day blood donation camp is held with the help of Indian Red Cross Society. By organising the camp, Canon India gives opportunity not only to its employees, but other corporates in the neighbourhood to participate. At the Canon Family Day held annually in February, we invite organizations like WWF and Helpage India to put up their stalls. Besides raising funds, we succeed in sensitising the Canon family on social responsibility.


Conservation of Environment
Canon has a corporate membership (2006-2008) with WWF and partners with them in environment conservation and awareness projects like “Adopt a Plant” where free saplings were distributed to employees; “Kids day out” where children of employees were taken through an awareness workshop on environment and endangered species. In 2006, Canon in partnership with WWF organized a photo-contest on the theme ‘Water’. This was aimed at raising awareness on water conservation.
