In March IRANI received a trophy of recognition for the partnership with The Junior Achievement Association of Santa Catarina.
The partnership with the Junior Achievement Association was singed five years ago and it is a stimulus to corporate volunteering and disseminates issues related to sustainability, entrepreneurship and ethics.
The partnership with IRANI covers São Paulo, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul and relies heavily on the support of employees in the factories located in these states. In 2012, more than 800 young people were benefited from the initiative.
Junior Achievement is a worldwide nonprofit organization, operating in more than 100 countries, funded by sponsoring companies. Its goal is to awaken the entrepreneurial spirit in schoolchildren.
