On January 6, Danone’s vitamin beverage brand pulse announced the launch of the “pulse Toread Holdings Group Co.Ltd(300005) ” program for migrant youth. According to the plan, 10 million yuan will be invested in the initial stage, together with the central China Guangdong Guanghua Sci-Tech Co.Ltd(002741) foundation of the Communist Youth League and the “Rainbow Bridge” talent training project of Tianjin University of technology, to support 100 new migrant youth to realize their three-year university dream every year, and provide them with tuition, accommodation and living expenses.
While providing academic education, pulse will also cooperate with various professional institutions to jointly create a “pulse Growth Camp” — tailor career development counseling for students, help them complete their career development planning, and introduce external internship and career development opportunities to enable them to achieve their self-development goals day by day and step by step. In this process, Danone’s management and senior business backbone will also serve as career development mentors for young people as employee volunteers, and will use Danone’s industrial chain resources to seek more development opportunities for them.
“We very much welcome pulse to join the cause of empowering youth development and provide assistance for Rural Revitalization and common prosperity. We also hope pulse’s action can drive more enterprises and social forces, give young people more understanding, respect and support, and better empower and help youth development.” Liang Fandong, Deputy Secretary General of the central China Guangdong Guanghua Sci-Tech Co.Ltd(002741) foundation of the Communist Youth League, said.
