Community Outreach

Community Involvement

Clinical Resources is committed to supporting organizations focused on health initiatives through its culture of corporate responsibility and by giving back to the community. As part of an internal program we encourage every employee to volunteer a few hours each quarter to one of these various community and charitable organizations.

Charitable Giving

Clinical Resources provides financial support to these charities, and over the next few years, will expand its charitable contributions to other organizations, focusing on health and social services.

Clinical Resources community involvement initiatives include:

Kiva

One of our proudest areas of involvement is with Kiva.org, the micro-loan group that helps entrepreneurs in third-world areas start their own businesses. Focusing mostly on helping women and marginalized groups, Kiva provides the funding needed on a small scale so that a local business can get on its feet. Kiva’s mission is to connect people, through lending, for the sake of alleviating poverty. Kiva empowers individuals to lend to an entrepreneur across the globe. By combining microfinance with the internet, Kiva is creating a global community of people connected through lending.

Clinical Resources has sponsored the following business:

Helping a family in Cambodia start a farm to grow citronella. The live in Akreiy Ksatr, a village in the Kandal province. Mrs. Leak Sothy, 50 years old, as the group leader for this venture and she and her husband, Mr. Me Vatha, are farmers who own a plot of land to grow citronella for a living. They have received funds to support this farm and to buy seeds and fertilizers to cultivate the citronella.

Clinical Resources continues to reinvest in Kiva and will further expand contributions to the many wonderful projects in years to come.
