One of the most important and regularly monitored aspects of the functioning of companies making up the Coca-Cola System is their contribution to the development of particular economies in which companies such as Coca-Cola HBC Poland and Baltics operate.

Being the leader of the non-alcohol beverage market, both globally and locally, is not only the source of pride but also a way to measure success. It also involves a huge responsibility – we’re the leader who shapes the market and its behaviour patterns. It is the leader who has the greatest impact on the process of educating both the supply chain and the customers.

Coca-Cola has been present in Poland and Baltics for an over quarter of a century, engaging in its economic development and supporting local communities. We’re glad that together we can create a better future. The latest socioeconomic report perfectly presents those areas of Coca-Cola’s activity of which we are proud the most.

If you have a request for community support, we ask that you submit as much detail about your proposal as possible.

Please note that we get hundreds of requests for product support throughout the year. In order to make the most impact in communities across Poland and Baltics we focus our support in certain key areas in line with our corporate social responsibility programmes.

The areas we support include:

• community wellbeing - activities that supporting healthy lifestyles
• programmes related to youth development
• programmes related to environment protection (selective waste collection, waste recycling, water management, climate protection)

Political and religious activities. As an independent company, we take a neutral political stance and respect all religions equally. Accordingly, we do support any political party or religious groups over others.

Individual requests. Our goal is to reach those in need with the widest possible range of our assistance. That is why we work with charities, non-governmental and non-profit organisations who are most equipped to make the most impact in communities.

Targeting events dedicated to children under the age of 12. Our responsible marketing policy pledges not to advertise to children under 12 years of age. We respect the primacy of parental choice, independence and education

Financial requests. We do not consider cash donation requests. Our primary investment in communities is focused on the area of youth development and The Coca‑Cola Foundation donates grants to community groups that support community wellbeing.

If you think that the request meets the above criteria, please send us an e-mail for more information. Please keep in mind that it might take us up to two weeks to respond to your request.
