Mitsubishi Materials Corporation made fiscal 2023 donations to four organizations working to resolve social issues.
This initiative was launched on the occasion of the Group's 150th anniversary last year. To realize our corporate philosophy "For People, Society and the Earth," we have selected organizations committed to solving social issues through activities in line with this philosophy, in particular those supporting children, students, and refugees, and we continue to make donations this fiscal year.
We, as a Group, will continue to contribute to the resolution of social issues and a sustainable society through various initiatives.
