Corporate Responsibility to Children Award 2016

Borges International Group has received the regional Empresa Responsable con la Infancia (Corporate Responsibility to Children) prize for 2016. The ceremony took place in the city of Huelva and was carried out by children, coinciding with International Children’s Day.

These awards aim to raise awareness among the business sector with regard to the company’s responsibility to society and in this case to children, as a vulnerable population group and as future adults who have to safeguard the country’s best interests. That is why the CIPI (Consejo Independiente de Protección, the Independent Protection Council) recognises companies that have been awarded for their efforts to be responsible towards children.

The promotion of family reconciliation, activities for children of employees and staff involvement in the company’s social responsibility programs have been, among others, the criteria assessed by CIPI in order to reward companies and entrepreneurs who contribute to responsible practices for the welfare of children.

A great Gala starring children was held yesterday on International Children’s Day, with various dance performances and demonstrations of children claiming their rights, and the unanimous voices of award-winning companies declaring that children are the “present.”
