Our History
The Sustainability story at Vodafone is a journey that goes beyond doing business as usual and external recognition. Vodafone is proud to be one of the leading companies to adopt Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Egypt and has been giving back to the Egyptian society since 2002 with a number of community development projects. To this day Vodafone has been practicing CSR in the field of health, education, and disability.
In 2016, we set out to redefine our approach to corporate Social Responsibility. In doing so, our intention was to ensure an even closer alignment between the core commercial goals of our business and the maximum possible social, economic and environmental impact achievable as a consequence of those goals. The outcome from our work during 2014-16 is a new sustainable business strategy for Vodafone Egypt. The transformational change from the CSR model to the Sustainable Business model is a reflection of our desire to ensure our business objectives have a clear social and economic purpose. We believe a commitment to enhancing lives and livelihoods through our promise ‘Power to you’.
