Activities contributing to international cooperation

Activities as JICA volunteers

Since 2017, our company has been dispatching personnel to JICA's Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers as part of our "Overseas Trainee Program".
JICA's Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers play a significant role in bridging Japan with developing countries.
The dispatched JICA volunteers are assigned to public institutions and as its members, they come up with activity plans alongside their superiors and colleagues. They repeat the cycle of planning, executing, checking, improving, and work together with stakeholders while engaging the people around them. By learning the language, lifestyles and customs of the local community, the JICA volunteers support them in tackling their unique challenges while serving as a partner in nation-building.

Participation in "Furugi de Vaccines"

Internal Volunteer Activities

On July 28, 2017, we utilized our after-work hours to conduct a volunteer program called "Nunochokkin" at our headquarters annex.
"Nunochokkin" is a volunteer program organized by the certified non-profit organization, "Caring for Young Refugees." It involves delivering toys such as dolls and balls to children in Cambodia. Local women in Cambodia sew the fabrics provided from Japan into finished play items, thus, contributing to local employment.
14 employees participated in this event and cut out fabrics from second hand clothes into patterns. As a result, we were able to make 15 dolls.
We will continue our efforts that contribute to international cooperation.

Orico Auto Finance Philippines Inc.

Orico Auto Finance Philippines Inc.

In keeping efforts to engage with the community, Orico Auto Finance Philippines Inc. (OAFP) took part in this year's Brigada Eskwela on August 26, 2023 at Concepcion Elementary School in Concepcion Uno, Marikina, Philippines.

Brigada Eskwela or Schools Maintenance Week is an appeal to the "bayanihan" (cooperation) spirit of every Filipino to help prepare public schools in the Philippines for the opening of classes.

The purpose of this activity for OAFP is to shed light on the concept of "corporate social responsibility" (CSR) that describes for the actions made by businesses to support the society, which in relation to The Orico Group Code (ORICODE), Code of Conduct No. 5, "we shall act as good citizens who contribute to society."
OAFP`s Brigada Eskwela is the company`s very first CSR activity. OAFP and its 60 donors sponsored school and cleaning supplies and its 30 volunteers did minor repairs, painting, gardening, and help cleaned the school premises.

Hopefully this meaningful activity, wherein everyone exerted hand-in-hand efforts, will be the first of many more activities that will not only keep the OAFP engaged in social work, but to act as good citizens who contribute to society.
