At Sphinx Glass, corporate social responsibility (CSR) is not just a commitment; it’s a reflection of our deep-rooted values. As a leading glass manufacturer in Egypt, we recognize that our role goes beyond producing high-quality glass products. We are also dedicated to playing an active role in supporting the development and well-being of our communities. This belief was exemplified by our recent participation in the “فرحّهم بشنطتهم” initiative, organized by Al Orman Association and sponsored by the Ministry of Social Solidarity.
In line with the start of the new school year, Sphinx Glass contributed to this heartwarming initiative by funding and distributing over 300 school bags filled with essential supplies for underprivileged students in Al-Fayoum governorate. The initiative was specifically designed to provide financial relief to struggling families, enabling their children to begin the school year with the necessary tools for success.
At the core of Sphinx Glass’ philosophy is the belief that business success should always benefit society. Corporate social responsibility is not an optional add-on; it’s a fundamental element of our corporate identity. By participating in social initiatives, we are not only fostering the growth of our communities but also enhancing the lives of the individuals within them.
Education, in particular, plays a crucial role in our CSR strategy. We understand that children represent the future of Egypt, and investing in their education is investing in the future prosperity and stability of our country. By supporting educational initiatives like the “فرحّهم بشنطتهم” program, we aim to make a direct and positive impact on the lives of young students, ensuring they are equipped for academic success, personal growth, and ultimately, contributing to society in meaningful ways.
The “فرحّهم بشنطتهم” Initiative: A Closer Look
Al Orman Association’s initiative, “فرحّهم بشنطتهم,” was created to bring joy and relief to families who face financial challenges, especially as they prepare for their children’s return to school. The program is focused on distributing school bags packed with essential supplies—items that may seem small but are critical for a child’s learning experience. For many families in underprivileged areas, the cost of even basic school supplies can be a heavy burden.
With the support of the Ministry of Social Solidarity, this initiative has reached numerous governorates across Egypt, helping children from disadvantaged backgrounds gain access to the materials they need for their education. The event in Al-Fayoum was one of the many successful distributions held throughout the country.
During the event, our team was able to witness firsthand the gratitude of the families and the excitement of the children as they received their new backpacks. The importance of education was highlighted, and the event served as a reminder that through collective effort and corporate responsibility, significant change can be achieved at a grassroots level.
