Corporate Social Responsibility

A vital part of our identity

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can mean different things to different organizations. Most would define it as all of the initiatives or practices put in place by an organization to foster sustainability. Socially responsible companies need to be economically viable, have a positive impact on society, and respect and preserve the environment.

Building an organization that lasts

A socially responsible company goes beyond the profit motive. To delaware, CSR means that we try to leave the world a little better than we found it. Every day, the #peopleofdelaware help us to do exactly that.

delaware originates from a dream: to build a long-standing and sustainable organization that can be passed on to the generations to come. Realizing that dream, however, is not something you do overnight. We can only continue dreaming when we also take responsibility for our company’s relationship with the social and ecological environment.
Our purpose is to enable our people, our company and our customers to reach their full potential, while creating a positive impact in a challenging world. That is why CSR is a vital part of our identity and our strategy. It is part of who we are.

realizing a dream for today, tomorrow and succeeding generations is not something you do overnight, and we know our responsibility goes beyond taking care of our own company - that's why CSR has become a vital part of our identity and our strategy

More than checking a box

Over the years, the delaware CSR task force has launched several initiatives and continues to do so on a regular basis. We truly believe that thanks to these efforts, we can have a positive impact on our broader environment.

In 2020, delaware was among the first Belgian companies to be granted the ’SDG Pioneer’ certificate. This award recognizes our efforts towards sustainability in general, and our contribution to each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

How are we creating positive ripple effects?

Our colleagues volunteer for the Fund Isaan organization, a non-profit in Thailand. We install computer classes in rural schools and teach English classes in cooperation with the local teachers.

By donating recycled laptops during the COVID-19 outbreak, we’ve tried to help out the less privileged youngsters closer to home, so they have the necessary equipment to take part in online classes.

Every year, delaware is present at many job fairs to attract new talents to join the #peopleofdelaware. Instead of spending money on gadgets, we decided to take on a different, more sustainable approach. A big thanks to all students for donating!

Additional proceeds from our WeCare2Move initiative went to the Kinderkankerfonds (which supports children who suffer from cancer) and to non-profit organization Zorg-Saam, a group of residential care centers for the elderly. With our donations, Zorg-Saam bought videophones, to make sure every resident can connect with their loved ones.
