Our Commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility

As an entrepreneur in the 80s, I chose to start my own business because of the sheer determination to follow my passion for baking. At a time when it was virtually unheard of for women to start their own venture, I decided it was now or never and took a leap of faith in myself.
 
My advice for budding entrepreneurs would be to face your fears, believe in yourself because although the challenges may seem large and many, you will find innovative ways to overcome all obstacles.
 
My experience with Fractal has been positively wonderful. I am so grateful to be able to partner with such a supportive and inclusive company and work with a highly focused team.

For the last few years we have been producing thousands of notebooks made out of paper collected from schools and offices of Auroville. On the cover there is a design describing step by step the process of how the notebook was made. So the children of Auroville and our clients are aware how we re-used this paper in a sustainable way. Keeping this in mind, we conduct 2-day paper making workshops during which participants learn the art of paper making and how to re-use their waste.
 
Auroville Paper is a place that gives its employees a clean environment, promotes their economic and social progress, and encourages their sense of responsibility and creative capacities. 73% of these employees are women coming from the surrounding villages.
 
We feel honored to be associated with Fractal CSR, an enterprise with an understanding of today’s world and who gives back to the community its innovative tools, for a world that is constantly changing.

The association with Fractal has been an enriching one indeed. Fractal provided VIDYA with the flexibility in terms of presenting program funding options and the relationship was always mutually fulfilling one. The Fractal volunteers were always dedicated and very humble. The feedback that we have received during the course of this association has been very valuable and has helped us improve our reporting and program delivery.

Our love for all things earth friendly, Indian and innovative is what drives us to do what we do at The Giving Tree. We help our clients feel special by creating bespoke gifts that speak the language of appreciation and warmth. We had an opportunity to participate in the Christmas Bazaar at Fractal Analytics last month. In this time of online shopping and a huge influx of machine made cheap products from outside the country, Fractals’ initiative to go the earth friendly way and bring together a plethora of handmade products together is a great sign. This CSR has been in a direction that empowers us to showcase our products to an appreciative audience and that is the biggest thrill for entrepreneurs like us.

DEEDS Vision is to make a better life for the Deaf & Mission is to make 20000 Deaf financially self reliant and contributors in society by the end of this decade. In pursuance of our vision and mission, we have set up many skill training projects in Mumbai which are conducted free for the Deaf. We take part in Exhibitions and CSR Bazaars because this is one major way of reaching out to the discerning public on what DEEDS is all about and the products that are exhibited and sold in these Bazaars are made by the Deaf. The encouragement and interest that we receive at Bazaars like yours gives us and the Deaf individuals adequate motivation and enthusiasm to do even better.

Being a woman, life expects so much more than managing a home round the clock, or balancing a work – home life. There are new solutions each day to make our lives easier, yet the space of meals lacks a product which supports our inherent culture of eating fresh. Burgundy Box is a bid to create a product line which promotes eating fresh and healthy, be it from our ready to eat line or from our innovative meal kits, empowering women to serve fresh and healthy meals for their families with utmost convenience. It was helpful for us to showcase and explain our products at a forum like the Fractal CSR Bazaar. We hope this can help your employees as well. Thank you so much for your support.

We felt supported by Fractal’s contribution and we would also like to do such activity anytime. It was a great experience sharing nature conservation activities with Fractal executive. They were supportive and wanted to know about BNHS conservation work. We had also spoken regarding small ideas, on how they can help saving nature.

This is the second year of SSK participating in the Fractal CSR Bazaar. We thank the company for extending all support towards the sale of our training products made at the Vocational Skills Training Centre. Our experience was good and positive. The event is well organised and our staff are well taken care of. This was an opportunity to create awareness about the services of our institution.
