Nidera Handelscompagnie BV sponsors RSM International Charity Foundation

RSM International Charity Foundation Announces Sponsorship by Nidera Handelscompagnie B.V.

RSM’s official charity foundation is pleased to announce that Nidera Handelscompagnie B.V. has become a gold benefactor to Pathway India Institution. This Institution is one of two community projects which this year’s MBA class is supporting. Pathway India provides educational training services and rehabilitation for disabled and orphaned children and adults, to give them the tools to create a meaningful future for themselves.  

Nidera is an international producer, exporter and marketer of agricultural commodities and services, headquartered in Rotterdam, with an active presence in more than twenty countries, including India. Nidera is actively engaged in having positive economic and social impacts in rural communities through its social responsibility program, “Values in the Community”. This program is aimed at focusing on education and youth employability by building relationships with civic and neighbourhood organisations in the communities where Nidera operates. Nidera’s support will be used to create agricultural cultivation training programs for the children within Pathway India, as a way to provide vocational skills and supplement Pathway India’s food supply.

RSM is pleased to be able to partner with businesses like Nidera to bring improvements to the communities from which many of its students originate. Nidera’s donation doubles the amount that has been raised in 2011 by students for the foundation, and almost triples what was raised through the foundation in 2010.
