COI - Social Responsibility

On 19 September 2018, the CBC Communities of Interest on Social Responsibility hosted a Roundtable Discussion with SickKids Foundation (SKF), one of Canada’s largest charity foundations based in Toronto. The aim of the event is for SKF to:

• Understand the role of philanthropy in the UAE and its impact locally and internationally
  
• Engage with business leaders/corporations with defined Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategies
  
• Connect with business leaders in the UAE in the healthcare, education, and finance sectors
  

Mr. Ted Garrard, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Foundation presented SKF and led the discussion. The participants having a diverse background shared valuable input and guidance to SKF.
