LexisNexis CSR initiatives. LN Cares.
Together, we care.
At LexisNexis we believe that it is vital that we play a positive role in both local and global
communities. This means that while we strive for excellence in providing content and
technology solutions to professionals, we feel it is equally as important to support our
employees, so that they can help improve the lives of others and the communities in which
they are involved.
LexisNexis is dedicated to playing a positive role in our local and global communities, primarily through employee involvement. Anti-human
trafficking initiatives, form the core of our corporate social responsibility programme and are underpinned by our global commitment to
helping to uphold the rule of law.
Annually over 200 LexisNexis South Africa employees take part in our Cares Day. The program called LN Cares, and is aimed at encouraging employee volunteerism and giving back to our community. Over the years the project has grown in leaps and bounds.
Project overview.
