Comunidades | Sustainability GreenLand

(103-1) As part of our corporate philosophy, our purpose at GreenLand is to nurture a social future and well-being for our employees, their families, and the communities in our area of influence and in other strategic communities, through our Fundación Social.

Our social investment model focuses on recognizing the family as the key to social changes, the neighborhood has a community developer, and the community as a center for social processes to consolidate our social responsibility strategy in the regions.
