The Epson Philosophy for Philanthropy and Giving, established in in 2004, outlines our desire to develop in harmony with communities and help build a better society as a socially progressive company. Our Policy for Philanthropy and Giving, created at the same time, sets forth five areas of priority for action.

Epson also emphasizes giving back its technological expertise through activities rooted in the countries and regions in which it operates. In fiscal 2008, we are increasing employee involvement in volunteer activities to strengthen our ties to the community. Our corporate citizenship expenditures in fiscal 2007 totaled nearly 700 million yen. As a good corporate citizen, we will continue to contribute to the creation of a better society through a wide range of support programs.
