The Formula for Good Deeds program brings SIBUR employees and residents of the cities where SIBUR operates together around universal human values encouraging them to participate in collaborative, community-impactful volunteering projects.

The program is an important component of SIBUR's strategy towards building vibrant urban communities that draw together the company, its employees, and all residents of cities where SIBUR operates, from Tver to Svobodny in Amur Oblast, to rally around shared values.

Since 2020, the Formula for Good Deeds has been appointing its volunteer ambassadors — who spearhead positive changes in the regions where the company conducts its operations. This year, SIBUR chose as ambassadors several active participants of the corporate volunteering program representing Voronezh, Krasnodar, Nizhnevartovsk, Perm, and Tobolsk. By virtue of being the program’s ambassadors, these leaders enjoy a number of additional opportunities and advantages, including the opportunity to implement their own volunteering initiatives, develop their personal expertise in social planning, participate in federal-level events on this topic, and meet experts in the field of charity and corporate volunteering.

Special projects implemented under the volunteering program

Contest of employees’
volunteering projects

The contest was instituted in 2017. Employees of all SIBUR Group’s companies can initiate their own volunteer campaigns and receive financial aid for their implementation. The contest seeks to involve employees and their relatives in important public-benefit projects. A grant’s maximum amount is 50,000 rubles.

Useful information for volunteers

To make sure that your efforts bring joy and value to yourselves and to others, we have drawn up some simple guidelines for SIBUR’s volunteers, and compiled a selection of useful resources.

Company-wide campaigns

At the request of employees, company-wide campaigns can be carried out in all regions where the company is present. These campaigns allow the company's employees to take care of those who really need it.

Employees' charitable initiatives

SIBUR is supportive of its employees' charitable initiatives seeking to solve the problems of local communities and socially disadvantaged groups, to provide gratuitous assistance to those in need, or meant to address pressing environmental issues. The best practices are then replicated at other sites.

The Good Deeds Marathon

This is the first company-wide initiative dedicated to the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Great Victory. Participation in this initiative is open to all those who wish to make their own personal contribution to keeping alive the historical memory of the events of the Great Patriotic War. Now is the time to do good deeds! Join up!

SIBUR’s Volunteering Forum

The forum is a platform that brings together the most active corporate volunteers, as well as the initiators of the best implemented volunteer projects, the company’s partners and managers. The Forum’s program is composed of the educational, discussion, and ceremonial parts.

Contest of students’ volunteering projects

This contest has been in place since 2018. It represents an excellent opportunity for students to build up such important skills as project planning and set-up, teamwork, financial management and financial reporting. A student from any approved university can propose his or her own volunteer project and get a grant of up to 50,000 rubles towards its implementation.
