Contributions to Local Communities
Environmental Beautification Activities
① Every year, there is an event called "Tenryu River System Environmental Picnic" organized by the Nagano Environmental Preservation Association to pick up garbage around the Tenryu River. Each year, more than 4,000 people from 100 companies participate in this major event, and MEG has been participating for more than 15 years, contributing to the beautification of the local community.
② There is a tributary of the Tenryu River called the Oizumi River right next to our company. We carry out the garbage collection of the Oizumi River every spring. The garbage we collected is processed by the village of Minamiminowa as illegally dumped garbage.
Blood Donation
Twice a year, we invite the Japanese Red Cross Blood Center to come to our company for blood donation. We have received commendations from the Kamiina Blood Donation Promotion Council and the Japanese Red Cross Society for our cooperation by more than 50 employees each time.
Donation Activities
We actively participate in activities to improve the environment for children by donating play equipment to school children's facilities, donating musical instruments to junior high schools through the issuance of private placement bonds, etc.
