| CSR @ Penta |
| The Directors and team members take corporate social responsibility (CSR) quite seriously and team members’ @penta proactively engage in socially relevant causes and work. Several of our team members also work pro-bono on mentoring activities for youngsters and work on social organisations and trusts which address the needs of thousands of people. Some hold Trusteeship and Office bearer positions on well known charitable organisations / trusts.
Donations are given to deserving students from economically backward sections of society. A doctoral student is doing her MS in research on oncology in the USA with a high grade point score. Several doctoral students are completing their work & thesis on water management and environment issues in India. Contributions are also made to the living expenditure of several such students through relevant & recognised organisations.
