GSK organises Orange Day

Following is a good example of Corporate social responsibility by GlaxoSmithKline for students in the area of career guidance.  

KARACHI – GlaxoSmithKline has organized an educational and fun-filled Orange Day-2012. The Orange Day was divided into one on one interactive career counseling, creative writing/drawing contest around the theme ‘My vision if I were the President of Pakistan’, an engaging museum tour, singing competition, and lunch.

GSK leveraged its strength of a diversified group of people from various academic backgrounds and 25 GSK employees, doing various roles across the organization, volunteered as counselors for the Orange Day 2012. Each of these counselors had been designated to counsel approximately 4 students, who had expressed their interest in particular fields prior to counseling, over a period of an hour and a half.
