This case study focuses on the Caring Company scheme, one of the most prominent Corporate Social Responsibility programs in Hong Kong. The case was built off of first-hand field research and it follows the leaders of The Hong Kong Council of Social Service through their years building the Caring Company program, discussing their journey towards bridging the divide between Hong Kong’s business community and civil society. Although the program has grown in prominence it has also faced increasing criticism. The case asks students to analyze the Caring Company approach and determine how its leaders could improve it in order to silence its critics. Key learning objectives include non-profit partnerships, CSR in Asia, and defining and measuring CSR.
