Communities supported with the Givaudan Foundation
The Givaudan Foundation supports the local communities who produce the natural ingredients that we rely on, as well as the communities where our employees work.
As a not-for-profit organisation, the Givaudan Foundation manages and supports projects and secures grant donations to help build more stable futures for communities and their environments. Targeted action plans are developed in cooperation with the producers, suppliers, organisations such as NGOs as well as with the support and know-how of Givaudan people.
Employee-driven projects
We believe that Givaudan employees have much to offer to communities in the area where they work. This is why the Givaudan Foundation enables and supports employee-driven projects and volunteering programmes.

“We are very happy with the literacy classes we have received. These classes have brought us out of the darkness: we are reassured because we are able to recognise all kinds of simple mathematical operations. Now we are able to do our calculations on our own and we can’t be misled about shopping or anything else.”
