AMD’s China Charity Diary

April 29th, 2008 by Rich

CSR Asia highlighted a recent press AMD release that in their words is:

the longest mainstream media piece on corporate giving I’ve seen.

In Chinese (Google translation here) , the story covers what looks to be about 6 months worth of activities (computer donations) in Yunnan, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, and other places … and it is long (I thought it was a blog post to be honest). Length aside, if you are looking to learn more about AMD’s philanthropic efforts in China, I suggest you read it. they are touching some of Chinese poorest regions, and the schools surely need the equipment. couple of questions I would be interested in knowing the answer; 1) Are they funding teachers as well? 2) What are the long term goals of this program? 3) Who will maintain the computers? 4) Could the AMD Sticker be any bigger?
