Kaga Electronics Group community contribution activities
The Group is engaged in business activities on a global scale. As such, we give back to society in various ways at our offices in Japan and overseas. Our manufacturing subsidiary in Mexico donates toys to children hospitalized with cancer (“Dr. Smile” program), and our manufacturing subsidiary in Shenzhen, China, gives tours of the factory to children and also gives children opportunities to experience work. Manufacturing subsidiaries in Japan carry out initiatives that have deep roots in their local communities, such as regularly participating in clean-up activities at nearby sightseeing areas and around the factory.
