Connecting Possibilities, A CSR PROJECT by YKK

Corporate Social Responsibility is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large (The World Business Council for Sustainable Development in its publication “Making Good Business Sense” by Lord Holme and Richard Watts)
As a management graduate I can still remember the elements of CSR; towards Employees, towards Consumers, End Users and Public, towards Competitors, towards Suppliers, Contractors and Government, towards Environment. And this project- towards Consumers, End Users and Public. The primary goal of all business is to earn profits through the patronage of their target market or the consumers. Business owners owe the public a lot that’s why in return they tend to pay it back.





YKK “Just for Kicks” Football Clinic invites Real Madrid coaches to teach football to Filipino kids. YKK Holding Asia Pte Ltd (YHA) contributes to local community and society through its Corporate Social Responsibility.
YKK Group continues to expand its businesses which center on fastening products and architectural products that marketed in about 70 countries/regions worldwide. YKK group is positioned as one of that clients can trust, and as truly global organization with technology-driven companies that create new value.
The press conference was held April 13, 11am at Quezon C room of the Shangri-La Makati. The panelist were: Mr. Aison Ng, Regional Marketing Manager in ASAO Group and Brand Strategy in YKK Holding Asia (YHA); Mr. Francis C. Laurel, President and CEO, YKK Philippines Inc.; Mr. Jose C. Laurel, Vice Chairman, YKK Philippines Inc.; Mr. Antonio C. Laurel, Chairman, YKK Philippines Inc.; Mr. Mariano Araneta, President of Philippine Football Federation. And the coaches are: Mr. Iván Garcia Sacristán, Real Madrid Club de Fútbol; Mr. Pablo Gómez Revenga, Real Madrid Club de Fútbol.
The idea of this football clinic started with Mr. Francis Laurel, he was a football player during his college years at University of the Philippines, Los Baños and met Mr. Tadahiro Yoshida during his stint at Northwestern. Football is now a new trend sports here in the Philippines as Azkals, started to blossom.

One of the video shown in the press conference has the message of “YKK, Connecting Possibilities” One of these possibilities they will do is bringing Philippines to the world cup through football. The children were chosen according to their status-poorer than the poorest. This project supports healthy growth of children through sports. If every Corporation will do their Corporate Social Responsibility, Philippines may get back our rank in the top2 or higher in Asia. We’re near to it.
