Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is when a company operates in an ethical


and sustainable way and deals with its environmental and social impacts. This
means a careful consideration of human rights, the community, environment, and
society in which it operates

Wipro, the Indian IT giant, is one of the most respected names in CSR today and
commands enormous market goodwill due to its various social initiatives. In this
article, we will talk about Wipro CSR Activities in India.

CSR Approach of Wipro

The Strategic:
We choose domains and issues to engage with that are force multipliers for social change and
sustainable development.

The Systemic: We choose to engage on systemic issues that require deep, meaningful and
challenging work. The objective is to affect systemic change at ground level over a period of
time.

The Deliberative:
Our emphasis on depth and on long term commitment implies a deliberative approach that
precludes spreading ourselves thin. By implication, this also means that we are wary of
expanding and growing our social programmes as ends in themselves. We will continue to
adhere to this approach going forward.

Educational CSR activities and initiatives by Wipro:


Wipro Cares focuses on meeting the educational needs of the urban poor along
with other initiatives. The educational needs of children that belong to this group
are often neglected due to various reasons. Wipro Cares aims at helping these
children by offering them opportunities for holistic educational and social
development by running bridge schools, non-formal schools and giving them
vocational training. Wipro also help train teachers to engage with these children,
with empathy. In addition, they support a school for hearing impaired children and
encourage girl child education

Magic Bus, Bangalore


The Magic Bus project started in October 2013 and is working with 500 children
around Sarjapur area in Bangalore. Sensitization of around 500 children in and
around Sarjapur area on importance of education, gender issues and health
hygiene is being carried out and also 20 youth leaders from the community were be
trained and assisted to take up leadership roles in the community.

Every Child Counts Campaign, Pune


The Key goal of the Campaign is to reach and enroll all children in the age group
of 6-7 into mainstream schools. With the support of Wipro Cares ECC would be
extending the campaign to five areas in the outer developing area of Pune.Door
Step School, an NGO working for education of children of marginalized
communities at construction sites and roadside dwellings for more than 2 decades,
foresaw the alarming trend of large numbers of children who were out of school.
Driven by a need to act upon these concerns with a sense of urgency, the "Every
Child Counts- Citizens' Campaign" was initiated to ensure access to elementary
education for all children in the city of Pune.

Door step School, Pune

In Pune, Wipro Cares work with an NGO called the Door Step School to train and equip teachers

reduce the dropout rate of children of migrant laborers
Healthcare  CSR  by Wipro:
Wipro believes that Health is a basic enabler. Most of their factories are in
underdeveloped rural areas where access to health care is remote. Their health
care projects aim to provide primary health care, and act as a catalyst in the overall
development of the community.

ArogyaJyothi:
Healthcare is generally identified by the services it renders. Usually, general health
awareness levels and behavior patterns are intrinsically linked to attaining good
health. Most often, the Government and NGOs focus more on maternal-child
wellness measures and services and not on imparting knowledge and understanding
about good health and hygiene practices. The ArogyaJyothi project aims to assess
and raise healthcare awareness and bring about positive changes. The key focus area
of the project is to bridge the gap of lack of preventive healthcare knowledge among
the rural children. This is undertaken by visiting schools and educating children
about various aspects of health and hygiene and equipping them with knowledge
that can help prevent diseases.

Amalner Health Care Project:


Amalner Health Care Project was started in January 2012. Currently company has a Wipro
Consumer Care & Lighting Group (WCCLG) plant situated in Amalner. The five villages
selected for the project lack adequate health care facilities. Amalner is a drought prone taluka,
only 3% land is irrigated. People do not have a continuous source of livelihood; most of the
people living in the area are either small farmer or labourers. The people of these villages are
unaware of the various health care services that are available to them. The project aims at
providing curative and preventive health care facilities along with working towards increasing
the efficacy of existing health care infrastructure and services.

Mysore Healthcare Project:


The chosen villages in Mysore houses around 70% of schedule caste and 30% of (Other
Backward Caste‟) OBC‟s. A very small percentage of families own land and dwelling of
their own, the vast majority does coolie work as construction workers and agricultural
laborers. Around 50% of the families earn below
Rs.10000 per annum (BPL). Sanitation is a major concern in the area which results in a constant
slew of diseases. This project focuses on the preventive and curative health needs of the
community. Provide comprehensive primary health service, regular health camps and awareness
generation on various issues of health to control and prevent contagious diseases and improve
women and child health and hygiene
Project Sanjeevini
Sanjeevani was launched in November 2009, in Waluj, Maharashtra. It covers 9
small villages, all situated within 10 – 25 kms area from Aurangabad city. The
population of the villages ranges from 300 to 1500 where the primary
occupation is agriculture. The rainfall in the region is inadequate and water
scarcity is a major issue. Due to poverty, malnutrition is another issue associated
with this region. The villages are in the hilly terrain of Aurangabad district and are
not well connected; two of them are inaccessible during monsoon. All the 9
villages, planned for intervention, have genuine need for basic medical services
as they are not covered by Govt PHCs. The awareness regarding health is very
low; cases of malnutrition and infant mortality are a common problem here. The
awareness regarding reproductive healthcare is totally nil and early marriages are a
common factor increasing the risk for both the mother and the new born.
Sanjeevani aims to build a sustainable primary health care system with the
involvement of the local population.
