HPCL CSR Approach

"People, Planet and Profit" succinctly describe the triple bottom lines and the goal of sustainability."People" (human capital) pertains to fair and beneficial business practices toward labour and the community and region in which a corporation conducts its business"Planet" (natural capital) refers to sustainable environmental practices"Profit" is the economic value created by the organization after deducting the cost of all inputs, including the cost of the capital tied up

CHILD CAREHope, Trust, and Innocence - This is what one expects to see in the eyes of a child. When these signs of childhood are replaced by betrayal, hunger, fear and suspicion, serious action is called for - to make the society a better place for children to live in. HPCL has partnered in this transformation thru the projects Bal Haq,Muskan Child Line.Child Rights- Bal Haq Aim of the project: Holistic development of children by working on Child Rights to ensure a just, self- reliant, dignified society where children have an opportunity for their Growth and Development.This project is partnered with Child Rights & You (CRY) which is an Indian Organization operating with various non -profit community based organizations working to make a permanent change in the lives of underprivileged Indian children and their communities and address the root causes that impact childrens lives gender, caste, displacement, livelihood etc. Indicators of Success: This project was implemented in Naupada and Kendrapara districts of Orissa and in Rajkot district of Gujarat for marginalized communities and children and covers over 58 villages.

Muskan Aim of the project: Street children are most vulnerable and need to be protected from falling into bad company or from getting involved in antisocial or criminal activities. They also need a shelter, a caring hand and proper training to make a good career. This program aims at providing basic needs like food clothes, shelter, health care, education and vocational training.This program has been under implementation since 2005-06 and is partnered with Prayas - Juvenile Aid Center (JAC) Society , New Delhi for taking care of street / run away children and placing them in shelter homes of Tughalakabad and Jahangirpuri for bringing back their lost childhood.

Rescue of Children In destress - Child Line Aim of the project: Provide quick and reliable mode of transport in the form of a Childline Rescue Van that will transport a child from a risk ridden situation to a safer space. Also create access to children in those places which are difficult to reach without a vehicle. The Childline Van will also serve as a tool for outreach programs. The presence of a Van in highly populated areas such as colleges, schools, markets, theatres, fairs etc. will create larger awareness which cannot be achieved by a stationary kiosk or face to face outreach programs.Indicators of Success: The Childline Van operates in Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata

EDUCATIONEducation is the pond of knowledge. Every country of the world is working towards enhancing its level of development. Education forms the foundation of a developed society. There is a strong correlation between the existing social ills such as spiralling population rate, dowry deaths, caste system etc. and lack of education of the girl child. Empowering the girl child with education would result in huge benefits for the nation in the long term.Computer Awareness Programs - UnnatiGirl Child - Nanhi KaliChildren with Special Needs - (ADAPT)Midday Meals for govt.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCommunity development is a skilled process and is based on the belief that communities cannot be helped unless they themselves agree to this process.
