The Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business has made its social responsibility report public for the first time.
The first social responsibility report ever released by a Chinese mainland business school, CKGSB's 2008 Social Responsibility Report gives an interpretation of the school's understanding of social responsibility and details the school's social responsibility achievements in 2008.
The report, which is more than 40,000 characters long in Chinese and English, covers CKGSB's philosophy, approach, and practices with respect to social responsibility.
The report shows that CKGSB's faculties and students donated CNY4,943,034.5 to the victims of the Sichuan earthquake. CKGB's alumni donated another CNY429,886,047.80 for the earthquake relief, accounting for 7% of the total donation made by Chinese enterprises.
Besides publishing the report, CKGSB will also submit the report to the Chinese Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Beijing Municipal Education Commission, the All-China Federation of Industry & Commerce, the China Enterprise Confederation, and the Red Cross Society of China.
Founded in Beijing by Li Ka-shing — one of Asia's most successful entrepreneurs and philanthropists — Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business features world class professors from the faculties of schools such as Wharton, Stanford, and INSEAD, and offers MBA, EMBA, and executive education programs.
