Vodafone Ireland wins top honours at the Chambers Ireland Corporate Social Responsibility Awards 2010
On 16th September 2010, Vodafone Ireland won the Outstanding Achievement in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Award at the Chambers Ireland Corporate Social Responsibility Awards.
This was in recognition of our sustained commitment to CSR underlined by our achievement in reducing carbon emissions by 34% with further reductions expected, and Vodafone Ireland Foundation’s World of Difference programme, which facilitates people “give something back” to their local community.
Speaking about the award the following day, our CEO Jeroen Hoencamp said:
“The award recognises, in particular, our sustained commitment to CSR which has been underlined by our achievements in reducing carbon emissions (by 34% and set to further reduce) as well as our Vodafone Ireland Foundation's World of Difference programme. Vodafone really "stole the show" at the event last night as we also won the Eco Business category and received the award for our Green Agenda. The fact that we beat off stiff competition from O2, Accenture and Dublin Port Company in the Overall Achievement category makes our achievement even more remarkable.”
