Together ... Sharing a common vision toward Social Responsibility
“We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men.” – Herman Melville
We Share a Culture of Giving
Conducting supply drives for victims of recent Philippine typhoons ... Supplementing educational resources in Latin America ... Feeding the needy throughout the world. These are just a few examples of how both ICT Group and SYKES have already contributed to our neighbors in need. When it comes to our shared culture of people serving people, our individual contributions are making a difference to those we touch. Imagine how much more we can contribute together.

 

As the third installment in our series of promised communications on the proposed merger of ICT Group and SYKES, this email outlines some of the charitable similarities and shared values of our organizations.
Combined, ICT Group and SYKES have more than 50 years of experience in customer care. While building our individual expertise and best practices in customer service, both companies have also focused on becoming responsible, philanthropic corporate citizens, giving back to the communities where our colleagues live and work. We have both built a culture of service, and with the proposed merger, we will combine our social responsibility efforts to make a difference in the lives of those in need in our neighborhoods – and around the world.
ICT Group: A Culture of Sharing and Caring
A key component of ICT Group’s core values has been the concept of “SHARE,” an acronym that reflects its employees’ steadfast commitment to upholding the core values of S ocial Responsibility, H onesty and Integrity, A ccountability, R espect and E xcellence in Quality. In the area of social responsibility, ICT Group and its employees have shared a common responsibility for the communities in which we live and operate. Through the support of local organizations and other charitable initiatives, both inside and outside of ICT Group, ICT employees have shown their commitment by supporting various organizations, such as the United Way , Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure , Special Olympics , American Red Cross , Gawad Kalinga (Philippines), Adopt-a-Highway and other community initiatives designed to improve the lives of others in our local communities.
ICT Group employees have volunteered their time to help make a difference. From building local villages in remote areas of the Philippines to donating time and money to help those less fortunate during the holidays and rallying together to provide economic assistance and moral support for those affected by severe weather, personal injuries or other misfortunes, ICT Group employees have answered the call and given back with their full support.
SYKES Serves Its Worldwide Communities
Likewise, SYKES has spent the past 30 years serving those in need in our communities. From Sembrando Esperanza , or ” Sowing Hope” in Costa Rica to SYKES Cares in the Philippines – SYKES employees have built social responsibility programs to serve those who need it most. Some of these efforts include procuring medical services and helping to drill fresh water wells in Africa, providing computers and technology training in Filipino schools, building homes in North America and donating school supplies to one-teacher schools in Latin America. SYKES also supports the American Heart Association , the American Diabetes Association , Feeding America , and the United Way . Plus, we honor everyday heroes in local law enforcement and fire rescue with an annual recognition luncheon. These are just a few examples of how SYKES employees give back in the name of service.

 

SYKES and ICT Group – Together, We’ll Make a World of Difference
One of the most important aspects of the proposed merger between ICT Group and SYKES is our similarities in shared values and culture. As separate companies, we have both set goals to transform the success we have in serving our clients, employees and shareholders into better serving our communities as well. Upon the closing of the proposed merger, we intend to continue our commitment to serve our neighbors and friends in need. Not because we have to, but because it is in our very fiber to do so. It’s who we are and it is what we are all about – people serving people. Together, our efforts to serve others will make a true difference in the lives of so many. Together we’ll help shape a better world.
