    • GSK's mission is far reaching: To improve the quality of human life by enabling people to do more, feel better and live longer.
    • Community Partnership Developments are not only a value adding business strategy; they are also becoming business imperatives. They add value strategically and also act as one tool to guide the "spirit" of the organisation and its employees
    Objective

As part of this realization by GSK Consumer Health Care, $300,000 over three years has been allocated for donations to chosen charitable organisation(s) whose charitable objectives match the corporate objectives and culture of GSK.
    • This proposal outlines, as requested by Ines Villaveces, a suggested methodology to find the "best fit" charitable organisation(s) and a project that will, by way of receiving this funding make a significant impact to the 'health and well being' of those it supports.
    CAF's Role
    • identify the most appropriate partner(s) and project(s);
    • ensure 'best strategic advantage' is taken;
    • perform due diligence checks to ensure the organisation has the ability to carry out the chosen project in an effective manner;
    • ensure funds are used correctly and as requested by the GSK;
    • encourage GSK staff involvement, and
      offer periodic audits as to progress made.
