our csr anchors
Based on our high ethical standards we aspire to deliver excellently on our CSR pillars
Environmental
Impact
Tangerine Africa is dedicated to protecting the planet we all share by reducing waste, saving energy, and conserving water resources. Through strategic partnerships and initiatives, we engage in periodic activities that focus on creating a more sustainable environment.
It is our long-term vision to achieve healthier waste management in our operations, workspaces, and community. We run a waste management programme to reduce, reuse, recycle, donate, and encourage behaviour change beginning with employees and extended to the public.
Education &
Advocacy
Using the strength of our social capital, we engage stakeholders to educate staff and ensure adherence to best practices.
We also provide educational opportunities to the coming generation through our scholarship programs, as we believe that quality education increases opportunities to access a better life.
Community
Involvement
Encouraging employee participation, we engage in community-related activities that directly affect the environment where we live and work. Tangerine Africa recognises the importance of community involvement as the interdependence between our business and the community is undeniable.
We embrace giving back; through financial contributions, collaborating with organisations and events, in-kind gifts, and employee volunteerism, we foster positive change in communities.
initiatives
Recycling for Scholarships
Recycling for scholarship is an initiative aimed at decreasing illiteracy using a method that simultaneously preserves the environment. Our goal is to provide children with resources to get a quality education, as an inability to pay fees is a leading reason for a high number of children out of school.
We organized the first edition in July 2020 through a recyclable collection drive tagged #TangerinePlasticChallenge. Following the 3-day collection exercise, about 642kg of recyclables was presented to ISRINA School, Ajegunle Lagos. ISRINA School receives recyclables as a form of school fee payment. Miss Yetunde Saheed was the scholarship recipient for the 2020/2021 academic year.
For the second edition, we are in partnership with the Lagos State Waste Management (LAWMA). Mesh bins have been set in strategic locations in Lagos state to collect recyclable plastic items. After the collection period, accredited recyclers will weigh the items, and exchange them for money or present them as an acceptable mode of school fee payment. Our target is to sponsor 10 kids by the beginning of the next academic year September
Greenspring School (2025)
In 2025, as part of our CSR initiative, we partnered with Greensprings School to support a beautiful vision of giving back. Inspired by a heartfelt request from Dabira and Dieko Adegbite — a set of graduating twins who recognised the need for a recycling bin in their school — we made this vision a reality through the #TangerineRecycling4Scholarships campaign. The twins’ thoughtful intention to leave a legacy of sustainability and compassion has set a powerful example. Through this initiative, plastic bottles collected in the school will be recycled, and the proceeds will go towards sponsoring the school fees of less privileged children — transforming waste into hope. We are honoured to play a role in nurturing this culture of responsibility and kindness. A big thank you to everyone at Greensprings School for embracing this initiative and supporting our shared commitment to education and environmental sustainability.
Isrina Schools (2024)
As part of our CSR initiative for 2024, we are proud to announce that through the #TangerineRecycling4Scholarships campaign, we have provided scholarships and essential study materials to students from Isrina schools, offering them renewed hope for a brighter future. This initiative embodies our commitment to creating lasting impact, promoting environmental sustainability while investing in the next generation. By helping to reduce plastic waste, we are not only contributing to a cleaner environment but also empowering young minds with the resources they need to succeed. We sincerely appreciate everyone who has supported this campaign by dropping plastic waste in our recycling bins. Your participation continues to drive positive change.
Morit International School (2023)
In 2023, as part of our CSR initiative, we partnered with Morit International School to make a lasting difference. Through the #TangerineRecycling4Scholarships campaign, we provided students with scholarships and essential learning materials — a step towards building a brighter future for the next generation. This initiative wasn’t just about recycling plastic; it was about transforming waste into opportunity. By supporting education while promoting environmental sustainability, we’re creating a ripple effect of positive change — one bottle, one child, one future at a time. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed by dropping off plastic waste in our bins. Your support goes beyond cleaning the environment; it’s shaping lives.
