Imagine What We Can Do Together: Randstad – VSO Partnership
Eveline Kramers, Randstad“We strongly believe that companies have no reason to exist if they don’t add value to society,” says Ben Noteboom, CEO of Randstad Holding nv. “Our core activity, putting people to work, means improving people’s lives. But we want to do something extra. Working with development organization VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) is a perfect match because we can help them select the right people, something we do every day. And: All of our employees can play a role in this partnership.” Randstad supports VSO financially, through in-kind donations and by providing expertise in recruitment & selection. Most importantly we stimulate our employees, who come from varied backgrounds -IT, HR, finance, etc.- to volunteer or raise awareness or funds for VSO. So far over 75 Randstad employees have volunteered with VSO in developing countries reaching thousands of beneficiaries. more[...]

Improving the Future of Epileptic Patients
Mireille Cayreyre, Sanofi Aventis
SanofiEpilepsy is not a cause of significant mental impediments. Nevertheless, it is often falsely perceived as a mental disorder in developing countries. Although epilepsy is not fatal, patients who do not receive treatment will experience serious difficulties over their lifetime. In addition to the disease being a handicap in daily life and work, over time, people with epilepsy face social marginalization or even exclusion. In turn, the social group itself is deprived of their economic and social contributions. To address this disease in developing countries, all of these factors need to be taken into account. Sanofi-aventis, as a leader in the global pharmaceutical industry, is thus providing developing countries not only facilitated access to its quality medicines, but also a large number of health services that respond to their specific needs.
