John Keells Social Responsibility Foundation (“Foundation”) – a company duly incorporated under the law and also registered as a “Voluntary Social Service Organisation” with the Ministry of Social Welfare – drives the Group’s social responsibility initiatives from the Centre while individual companies of the Group are also engaged in community service activities which complement their respective businesses as well as the broad focus areas of the Foundation.
Social responsibility has the highest commitment of the senior leadership and management of the John Keells Group, with the Chairman, John Keells Group and the other executive directors of John Keells Holdings PLC (JKH) comprising the Executive Committee of the Foundation.
While the Foundation has a management committee (MC), the foundation's initiatives and activities continue to be handled by the Manager of the Foundation, with the support of a cross-functional team of 18 senior executives drawn from various industry groups within the company. Each project is championed by a member of the MC and implemented by a project sub-committee comprising volunteers from across the group. The MC meets monthly, the Foundation’s activities are reported to the Executive Committee on a quarterly basis and its accounts are audited annually.
