| Reaching out for a better tomorrow |
A Fortune company, a global visionary, a retail innovator... these are terms attributed to Tesco. But there's more to add - education, awareness and humanitarianism. Tesco HSC reflects the attributes that Tesco follows wherever it is located. In Bangalore, Tesco HSC has undertaken community projects where our employees help in bringing smiles to the lives of those less privileged.
Our theme for the Corporate Responsibility programme is "Empowerment through Education". This is our fifth year of engaging with a corporate responsibility programme supported extensively by our staff with a strong sponsorship and commitment from the management.

Parikrma Humanity Foundation: This is a non-profit organisation solely dedicated to empowering children, from economically backward families, through education. Their schools are located in Koramangala, Jayanagar, Sahakarnagar and Yelahanka in Bangalore. From sponsoring their daily studies to extra-curricular activities involving games, music and art, we have also volunteered across these schools and visited
them on a regular basis.

| Let's walk together to a greener tomorrow |
Tesco HSC recently won the Best Green Garden Campus Award. This goes to show how firmly we believe in leaving the planet greener for future generations, and reducing our carbon footprint. Here’s a look at our latest initiatives.
Our employees participated in the Bengaluru Midnight Marathon, and we celebrated ‘Clean up the world’ week with several initiatives aimed at educating and creating awareness on conservation.
We also installed a 1KW windmill over a cooling tower - the power generated being used to illuminate a utility block. We use LED lamps for all interior lighting purposes in our campuses. And successfully implemented infra secure software on the desktops to automatically hibernate the system when not in use. Our Centre boasts of rainwater harvesting wells, waste water treatment plants, algae retardants in the water bodies, solar water heater in the gym and cafeteria, organic gardens and catalytic converters for generators on campus.
