Business growth and societal progress go hand in hand. A strong community provides businesses an environment to succeed, which in turn contributes to the growth of the community. At Cipla, we focus on giving back to society by empowering the marginalised and weaker sections of our society using both the art and science of development, involving vulnerable communities and forging meaningful partnerships to implement effective social initiatives.
Our Approach
Cipla’s vision for an equitable world is built on the foundation of ‘Caring for Life.’ At Cipla, we strongly believe that sustainable business growth is intertwined with the well-being of the societies and natural ecosystems where we operate.
Cipla Foundation, the exclusive philanthropic arm of the Company, collaborates with reputed institutions, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), government agencies and domain experts to enhance the outreach of its CSR initiatives.
We believe that our inclusive approach has two-fold benefits –
- Our implementation partners have an innate understanding of the needs of the communities where they undertake projects.
- Specialised project experience of such partners drives execution efficiency, under the guidance and supervision of the Foundation.
Focus Areas
Our CSR strategy has identified the following thematic areas:
Palliative Care
Palliative care recognises that the challenges faced by a person with a serious illness are not just confined to the disease alone. It acknowledges that there is pain and other symptoms related to the physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs of both patients and their caregivers. The goal of palliative care is to provide the best possible quality of life at every stage of all serious illnesses.
We are committed to increasing access to palliative care services across the country by partnering with government, non-governmental and community-based organisations to provide direct palliative care services to patients and increase awareness about palliative care. We are also working with partners to develop standards for palliative care service delivery to provide quality of care to patients and caregivers.
We envision a world where no one with a serious illness suffers from pain or other symptoms or feels alone; where each day is filled with comfort and support for both patients and their families.
