Basic Policy on Social Contribution Activities
The management philosophy of the RYODEN Group is “We respond to societal changes, strive for the stability and development of our corporate management and contribute to the communities in which we do business.” In addition, our vision for our target state in 2050 is “As a 100 year-old corporate group, the RYODEN Group contributes to the achievement of a sustainable society by serving the environment, peace of mind and safety.”

Achievements
Self-support for people with disabilities
As an official partner of Paralym Art (Shougaisha Jiritsu Suishin Kikou Association), RYODEN helps people with disabilities live more independently.
Paralym Art is a social contribution business that can continuously provide aid to people with disabilities through continued cooperation from private companies and individuals who work with artists with disabilities without relying on social welfare spending. With the aim of promoting social involvement and financial independence of people with disabilities, Paralym Art provides various resources artists need, such as systems, planning abilities, and sales capabilities for using their works at companies.
Going forward, we will employ works of art managed and handled by Paralym Art on our shareholder benefits (QUO cards) and the cover design of the Ryoden Report.
