Since FY2019 the Company has been operating the “DAIDO METAL Pro Bono* Program”, which creates opportunities for employees to become aware of societal issues and to leverage the experience they have accumulated in the Company for the good of local communities. By supporting the creation of the basic structures necessary for NPOs through our provision of subsidies to local NPOs and the involvement of employees in volunteer activities, we are contributing to the resolution of societal issues.
* “Pro bono” refers to volunteer activities that utilize experience and skills cultivated during work for social or public purposes, or to persons carrying out such activities.
In February 2024 we organized a food drive* titled “Think SDGs! DAIDO METAL Food Drive Action” as our commitment for SDGs. Food donated from employees was delivered to people and facilities in need of food support through Second Harvest Nagoya, a certified NPO. We also donate our emergency supplies that are due for renewal.
We are also conduction this program at our domestic affiliates, and will continue to expend our circle for support.
※A food drive is an activity where households bring unconsumed food that they cannot use and donate them to those who need them through food banks and other means.
In May 2024, our employees and their families participated in tree planting activities hosted by the Gujo Fisheries Cooperative Association as part of the “Nagara River Headwaters Forest Development Project.” We engage in activities to maintain and improve its rich ecosystem by nurturing the forests at the headwaters of the Nagara River,which are the source of the hydrosphere that runs from the mountains to the river and on to the sea.
Holding a Used Book Charity Fundraiser
[Daido Metal Co., Ltd.]
In May 2022 we solicited donations of used items including books and CDs for the Think SDGs! DAIDO METAL Used Book Charity Fundraiser, one of our initiatives for the SDGs. The donated items collected from employees were appraised through Charibon, run by VALUE BOOKS, and the appraised amount was donated to the Ashinaga Foundation, a private NPO that provides children with scholarships and support, as well as emotional care.
[Daido Precision Metal (Suzhou) Co., Ltd.]
Daido Precision Metals (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. received an award through the Volunteer Association of the Suzhou Industrial Park Charity Foundation for assisting six children who are disadvantaged in attending school because of conditions faced by their families.
[Daido Metal Mexico S.A. de C.V.]

Daido Metal Mexico S.A. DE C.V. sponsored operations and donated to Colegio Japones de Guadalajara, an extracurricular Japanese-language school. Colegio Japones de Guadalajara is a supplementary school that provides Japanese children living in the local area with semi-full-day classes in Japanese language, with instruction performed in Japanese, in compliance with the Japanese educational curriculum. We support operation of the school to enable Japanese nationals working in the area to do so with peace of mind, for themselves and their families.
[Dyna Metal Co., Ltd.]
A total of 50 Dyna Metal Co., Ltd. members participated in mangrove planting activities. In Japan, afforestation is an activity associated with mountain areas, but in Thailand, it is done in tidal flats at the mouths of rivers. Many activities are under way to bring back the former mangrove forests as a way to reduce greenhouse gases while preventing flood damage. The location is a mangrove afforestation park facility situated about an hour by car from Bangkok. Each person planted six mangroves making a total of 300. 

River cleanup activity
Every year the Company’s Inuyama Site Office participates in river cleanup activities that take place as part of a local event. We have been involved in these river cleanup activities for over five years,
which we tackle as part of our environmental responsibilities due to wastewater also being discharged from the Company’s locations into this river.
