Introduction to the participating units:
Hangzhou Wahaha Group Co., Ltd. was founded in 1987. It has 80 production bases and more than 180 subsidiaries in 29 provinces and autonomous regions across the country, with nearly 30,000 employees. The products mainly cover more than 200 varieties of protein beverages, packaged drinking water, carbonated beverages, tea beverages and more than ten categories, ranking among the top 500 Chinese enterprises.
Reasons for participating in the evaluation:
In the post-epidemic era, companies must not only defend the "position" of traditional sales channels, but also expand new "battlefields", find new opportunities, and empower new development. In May, Wahaha announced its entry into the e-commerce industry to build a "healthy" vertical e-commerce platform.
At the Hangzhou "Spring Breeze Action" mobilization meeting held in January 2020, Wahaha Group donated another 10 million yuan and won the "Spring Breeze Action" 20th Anniversary Good Award Excellent Unit. As a major donor to the "Spring Breeze Action", Wahaha has currently donated 104.60 million yuan, sending warmth and help to countless students in need.
Since the first "Spring Breeze Action" was launched in Hangzhou in 2000, Wahaha has responded positively. This public welfare has been done for 20 years. Zong Qinghou, chairperson of Wahaha Group, said: "Wahaha is a native enterprise in Hangzhou and has always attached great importance to education since its establishment. The purpose of our Spring Breeze assistance activities is to give more people equal opportunities to thrive in life."
Wahaha started as a school-run enterprise in 1987 and has always been sincere about education. In 2011, it launched the "Wahaha · Spring Breeze Student Aid" special project fund. So far, the project has accumulated more than 90 million yuan in assistance and distributed more than 70 million yuan in student aid, helping more than 30,000 students in need to realize their "college dream". In recent years, the "Wahaha · Spring Breeze Student Aid" project has continuously innovated the carrier of student aid, enriched the forms of student aid, and expanded the coverage of student aid, and has achieved remarkable results in solving the problem of children in difficult families going to school.
Since 2018, "Wahaha · Spring Breeze Student Assistance" has been extended to counterpart assistance areas, and has organized counterpart assistance activities for Enshi Prefecture and Qiandongnan Prefecture. In the past two years, a total of 12 million yuan has been allocated to support 4,000 difficult students in Enshi and Guizhou to go to university.
On December 10, 2019, the Municipal Federation of Trade Unions held the first "Wahaha Spring Breeze Scholarship" scholarship issuance ceremony at the Cangqian Campus of Hangzhou Normal University, donating 2 million yuan to encourage the students to study hard and repay the society, continue to pass on social love, and cultivate the spirit of "Spring Breeze Action". The "Pei You Fund" is a new project of the Hangzhou Federation of Trade Unions, the Hangzhou Municipal Education Bureau and Wahaha in the "Spring Breeze Action". It is dedicated to improving the living and learning conditions of college students in Hangzhou who are both excellent in character and learning and have family difficulties, so that they can not only "go to school", but also "go to school".
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. While providing bursaries for students in need, Wahaha also actively creates social practice opportunities for them, so that Spring Breeze Student Aid can be further extended to job assistance. In August 2019, the Municipal Spring Breeze Office and Wahaha Group held the "Wahaha · Spring Breeze Student Aid" Vocational Experience Summer Camp. 21 Enshi and Qiandongnan students came to Hangzhou to participate in a week-long lecture training, visit and inspection, and practical operation of positions. As early as four years ago, hundreds of college students from Zhejiang Technology University, Zhejiang University of Technology and other universities in the province participated in the special training and job fair of "Wahaha · Spring Breeze Assistant". Through practice in more than 280 positions in production, scientific research and management provided by Wahaha, they combined theory with practice and improved their ability to innovate and start a business.
