Giving Back to the Community
Many employees at our Cartagena, Colombia, facility participate in Mamonal Foundation projects.
+ 詳細
This foundation funds a multitude of community projects with a focus on raising the quality of life, generating economic prosperity in the community and reducing the inequality gap in the population of Cartagena and surrounding areas. We were one of the founding companies of the Mamonal Foundation in Cartagena in 1975 and our Regional General Manager and Colombia Country Manager, Guillermo del Castillo, serves as the chairman. One way the Cartagena site has contributed in a meaningful way is through the sponsorship of the Boomerang Scholarship project, where bilingual technology scholarships were awarded to 12 low-income students with outstanding academic performance. In addition, 90% of our employees have made voluntary donations that were matched by the facility to support the development of a children's daycare center for a nearby community in need.
