Together with partners, the foundation’s purpose is to identify, drive and promote activities and projects that strengthen civil society and create positive impacts for the environment. These goals are consistent with SIG’s sustainability strategy – the net-positive commitment to contribute more to society and the environment than the company takes out.
Cartons for Good
In Bangladesh, where the foundation is running the pilot project, surplus food is preserved in SIG packages for schools to offer underprivileged children regular lunches throughout the year. This means that they can come to school instead of having to work for their food.
In future, the initiative aims to intensify partnership with SIG customers to use SIG technology to turn food loss and waste affected fruits and vegetable into nutrition for those who need it most.
Cartons for Good supports the following Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations:
