Today, corporate social responsibility (CSR) extends beyond compliance, with companies integrating it into their core operations for long-term impact. It reflects their commitment to ethical practices, social well-being, and environmental stewardship. CSR is not just about financial donations; it’s about prioritizing social impact and building trust with stakeholders.
At Jakson Group, our core purpose is to enhance the quality of life for all stakeholders by creating a sustainable organization. Through our corporate and social responsibility initiatives, we strive to foster a world where environmental responsibility is paramount, and empowered communities pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.

Expanding our Impact through Key Initiatives
1. Empowering Education (SDG 4 – Quality Education)
The Jakson Early Learning Centers in Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra provide holistic development for underprivileged girls, equipping them with a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Our JKG Scholarship Project with DSEU offers financial support to underprivileged students, empowering them towards career independence.
In Himachal Pradesh, we support the development of school infrastructure, enhancing access to education for thousands of children. The ‘Under the Tree Schools’ program, in partnership with Ekal Vidyalaya, ensures quality education for over 2,000 children from underprivileged families.
2. Promoting Health and Well-Being (SDG 3 – Good Health and Well-Being)
Jakson tackles substance abuse through de-addiction programs for youth in Uttar Pradesh to promote a healthy lifestyle. Regular blood donation camps are organized at our offices and manufacturing plants to ensure that critical medical resources are always available for those in need.
Through our Sustainable Model Village Project, we improve living conditions by constructing toilets, community halls, and organizing health camps in villages across Phaltan, Balaghat, and Kalsar. We have donated emergency medical equipment to community centers, ensuring that vital healthcare services are accessible in times of crisis.
3. Environmental Stewardship (SDG 13 – Climate Action)
Project Prakriti supports biodiversity conservation through the plantation of over 1,000 trees & maintaining them for 5 years, creating greener environments in local communities. We also encourage the use of renewable energy by solarizing hospitals like AIIMS Delhi, enabling sustainable healthcare.
We actively support the Swachch Bharat Abhiyaan by conducting regular sanitation and cleanliness drives in our offices and nearby communities.
4. Skill Development and Vocational Training
We believe in fostering economic independence through skill development. Programs like Sankalp for Solar PV and Yuva in collaboration with Delhi Police offer vocational training to victims, school dropouts, and juveniles, helping them reintegrate into society with dignity and skill.
These are just a few examples of our CSR activities as we strive to make a positive impact.
