Hundreds of L’Oréal managers and employees in Israel, headed by L’Oréal Israel CEO Elie Sagiv, volunteered at ten different locations throughout the country on behalf of the community as part of “Good Citizenship Day,” which the company is observed for the 13th year.

The activities encompassed all of the company’s employees from its headquarters in Netanya and the logistics center in Caesarea, who dedicated their entire working day to meaningful volunteering for the community.

The program began early in the morning at ten different locations, from Ramat Gan to Bnei Brak, from Netanya and HaKfar HaYarok to Gan Haim, with L’Oréal staff engaged in significant volunteer activity, in cooperation with organizations and associations that are L’Oréal’s long-term social partners.

Not only on this day, but throughout the year, we enable our employees to volunteer at the expense of working hours and contribute to the communities around us. A successful company is measured not only by its business performance but also by the social and environmental impact it creates around it. A  key component of L’Oréal’s mission and vision is to create beauty that drives a more beautiful world.”
