Objective Action
Supporting the vulnerable social groups by offering food of high dietary value (such as the freshly frozen fish).
Target Audience
NGOs and Charities nationwide, as well as individual families in need in the region of Aegio, Peloponnese.
Duration
Kallimanis "Meals of Love" is a programme that has been initiated at least 10 years, ago. Every year, the programme is adapted to the needs of the Greek society.
Description
CSR is one of the most dynamic and demanding sectors for modern business. For KALLIMANIS the effort for a better future is a responsibility of all of us. Even when KALLIMANIS didn’t have its current size and even when the social contribution didn’t have titles, its founder, George Kallimanis, was well known in the community of Aegio for his intense and humble charity work. For this reason, KALLIMANIS states that the offer to fellowman is not just an obligation, it is recorded in our corporate DNA.
