Smurfit Kappa | Our open community 2020
This year, the pandemic has played an enormous part in shaping our actions, with the safety of our people, as always, paramount in supporting each other through a time of uncertainty.
For this reason, I am filled with gratitude and pride at the dedication of you, our employees, who despite all challenges, have continued to donate your time, effort, energy and expertise to make a positive and lasting impact on your local communities.
As a company, we have always believed strongly in being part of projects that help to build a sustainable future in the communities worldwide in which we are privileged to operate, and I'm pleased to say 2020 has been no different. Our values of loyalty, integrity and respect have been displayed right across our business and are evident in all the stories contained here. It is these stories that make us proud to be part of the wider Smurfit Kappa family and the reward is the work itself and the difference it can make.
This brochure is a selection of initiatives taking place across our operations in the Americas and Europe. It is a showcase of how we support our local communities by inspiring and educating our younger generations through creativity and play; relentlessly giving back to our communities through sport and volunteering; and, demonstrating how we can continue to protect our planet and respect our environment.
I'd like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank each and every one of you for your dedication, commitment, and enthusiasm to support your local communities.

Initiatives categories
Our initiatives cover all aspects of our involvement with our communities around the world. We have captured these under five categories.
Inspiring our future
As part of our dedication to sustainability, we are committed to supporting our future generations through education, play and inspiration. This year our employees championed a number of activities to teach, inspire and bring awareness to our younger generations.
Protecting our planet
At Smurfit Kappa, sustainability is in our every fibre. We have a deep commitment to the planet and we believe that we must always do our best to help protect it. Not only do we strive for this through our products and operations, but our teams are also committed to this on a local level. Our activities can be seen from tackling litter, to recycling, to promoting and protecting our local ecosystems.
Empowering our communities
At Smurfit Kappa we are deeply committed to supporting the local communities across the 35 countries in which we operate. Internally and externally, we make the well‑being of people a priority throughout our organisation. We are proud to invest in our communities and to give back through volunteering our time, effort and expertise, as well as through financial and other donations.
Getting active for our communities
It's not enough for us to support our local communities - we want to be an active part of them. We are proud of the efforts and contributions of our teams at a local level to support the many wonderful initiatives that take place. We have shown ourselves to be an energetic, committed and sporting organisation through the many activities over the last year.
Joy of creativity
Innovation, fun, creativity and play have been brought to the fore time and time again using our corrugated cardboard. We have seen how our teams have demonstrated their ingenuity working with cardboard in new, fun, practical and innovative ways to support their communities.

"It was very special to feel the support of the management and each person who as a family joined together for our community."
- Rocio Realpe, Smurfit Kappa Colombia
Responding to neighbourhood needs in Colombia

In cities around Colombia, struggling families hang red handkerchiefs on their doors and windows as a sign that they urgently need food. Every day, employees of Smurfit Kappa Colombia see households with red handkerchiefs outside as they travel to and from work. To show their neighbourly compassion, our workers made a series of food and monetary contributions.

A park for all in Italy
This summer, with the help of the Smurfit Kappa foundation, Smurfit Kappa Italy opened a very special park called "Il Parco di Tutti" - The Park for All. Now, the children and families in the local area have a safe space to enjoy their free time.

More than just neighbours in Argentina
Smurfit Kappa Bernal have been supporting their neighbours, the Association of Parents of Children with Special Needs (APHE), for the past number of years by purchasing their baked goods for coffee breaks, events and Christmas gifts.

Much needed donations in Sweden
Smurfit Kappa Sweden donated an impressive 10,000 protective face masks to people working in health-care and geriatric care in Piteå in a bid to protect workers and patients during the Covid-19 pandemic. With huge shortages of PPE in Piteå, the donation was warmly received.

Keen to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities in sport, Smurfit Kappa Valencia came together to support the Il Grand Prix Spanish Cup of Adapted cycling. The initiative is aimed at raising awareness of adapted cycling, and the wonderful sporting opportunities that it can provide to those with certain disabilities.
Supporting the Special Hands Activity Group in Ireland
When their charity challenge in aid of Special Hands Activity Group had to be cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Smurfit Kappa News Press Ireland had to find a new way to raise money. The result was an on-site group bike challenge held outdoors, and an off-site personal activity challenge. This allowed participants to set a challenge in their preferred location while raising money for a great cause that supports children and young adults with additional needs.
Changing a life through cycling in Poland
Employees from Smurfit Kappa Poland have come together to participate in a cycling race to raise money for a young girl from Białołęka who, along with scoliosis, suffers from many different health issues. The race was organised to raise money for her continued treatment from a range of different specialists. The cycling race also helped to promote Białołęka as a safe destination for cycling trips.
A new park for play in Germany

a new classroom, the school has been able to provide the resources for a first year high school class. This wonderful development has seen the number of children enrolled in the school increase by 20%.
A new specialist classroom in the Czech Republic
A brand new class for children with autism in Olomouc is opening the future for local families. Responding to a call for funding, Smurfit Kappa Olomouc jumped into action, and with the help of the Smurfit Kappa Foundation they were able to purchase a new library and specialist equipment. As a result, they can provide a new class that teaches through Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) - a method of teaching that is very successful for children with autism.
