April 29th, 2024: FUJIFILM India, a leading company in healthcare, electronics, imaging, and business innovation, reaffirms its commitment to community development and education through the extension of the FUJIFILM India Model School Program. Expanding upon the impactful strides made during its CSR endeavours in FY-22, which breathed new life into three schools in MG Road, Gurugram, and Jajru, Faridabad, FUJIFILM India continues in its mission to broaden educational opportunities for less privileged children. This initiative stands true to the brand’s group philosophy of “Giving Our World More Smiles.”.
Last year, FUJIFILM India undertook a transformative initiative by revitalizing three government schools in Haryana. FUJIFILM India refurbished and remodelled the Government Primary School located in the heart of Sushant Lok, Gurugram, Haryana, into the FUJIFILM India Model School, making it a modern and inspiring space where students can thrive, and revamped the Government Middle School of the village Jajru in Faridabad, Haryana. This year, it continued its commitment by undertaking the annual maintenance of both schools and providing essential supplies such as bags, stationery, and shoes to the students, intending to alleviate some of the burdens faced by students and educators.
Investing in education transcendsthe benefits of elementary education for students. By equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed, FUJIFILM India contributes to the overall advancement and prosperity of the community.
Reflecting on the forward-thinking initiatives undertaken by the company, Mr. Koji Wada, Managing Director of FUJIFILM India, shared, “As a responsible corporate citizen, FUJIFILM India has been doing its best to provide support to weaker sections of society. Be it the TB Screening Campaign in Gujarat, which is revolutionizing TB detection in India, or our FUJIFILM Model School program, which is supporting government schools and their students in whatever small ways we can, our mission is to reach the last person in society so that they can benefit from our activities. Today’s activity at the school in Gurugram is an example of how we follow our group purpose of ‘Giving Our World More Smiles’ through our sustainability activities.”
Mr. Abhi Shekhar Singh, Vertical Head, Corporate Communications and CSR, voiced, “The CSR activity at Gurugram and Jajru in Faridabad is an extension of what we started last year. The thought from our side was to continue maintaining the schools that we refurbished and support the students with the minimum basics of what we can. In light of this, we prepared school bags, shoes, and a stationary kit for each kid and gave them them at the very start of their academic sessions. We were of the idea that such goods for the children will motivate them about the new session and classes that they are starting and will help them understand the importance of education.”
The previous initiative undertaken by FUJIFILM India resulted in a tangible increase in student attendance and engagement. By revitalizing the schools and providing ongoing support, FUJIFILM India continues to be a catalyst for progress and transformation in education, empowering students to unlock their full potential and pursue their dreams.
