Using the dimensions of Inputs, Outputs and Impacts, the impact of social investment is quantified to measure the value and impact of our social investment. According to the LBG model, quantifying social investment can facilitate the reasonable allocation of resources, avoid duplicate investment of resources and effectively integrate financial and non-financial information while satisfying the expectations of stakeholders, thereby creating a more effective societal contribution. The major social investment from CAL focuses on the sport campaigns connecting with commercial initiatives and charitable forum sponsorship (54%). The sponsorship for philanthropy (39%) and community investment (8%) are second priority. Those activities were mainly through cash and product donation as well as volunteers.
