Since the start of the fund, \u201cseveral initiatives and partnerships have been developed to promote social change,\u201d said <strong>Araujo<\/strong>. \u201cWe live in a country that suffers from great social disparities and structural racism, where thousands of people are deprived of basic access \u2013 especially within the education and employment space. Therefore, when the GSJF was created, we were proud to expand on our efforts to help more local organizations have a lasting impact in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So where did the team start? Since the beginning of 2021, <strong>Araujo and the team worked closely with a consultant dedicated to Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DE&amp;I)<\/strong> to advance internal training programs including reviewing internal policies and furthering collaboration and partnerships with community organizations committed to ethnic-racial issues around the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Externally, the team continues to work closely with <a href=\"https:\/\/www-redesdamare-org-br.translate.goog\/?_x_tr_sl=pt&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en&amp;_x_tr_pto=sc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Redes da Mar\u00e9<\/a>, a local organization dedicated to developing programs to increase quality of life and protect civil rights for the population of Mar\u00e9. In speaking with <strong>Joelma Souza<\/strong>, Head of Project Development Management at Redes da Mar\u00e9, Sony Music\u2019s support \u201cenabled the purchase and delivery of 450 food baskets and personal hygiene kits to 450 families in Mar\u00e9 \u2013 directly to their homes \u2013 and continue to benefit nearly 1,4000 Mar\u00e9 residents.\u201d Of the relationship, <strong>Araujo<\/strong> said \u201cthis is definitely one partnership that we are most proud of and hope to keep supporting even more in the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the team continues to work with the local community, their mission is to drive towards building a just society for all. \u201cOur main goal now is to direct all future resources from the Global Social Justice Fund toward actions that not only promote financial support for education programs designed for historically marginalized communities, but also keep engaging SME employees to act as mentors for young people who wish to join the music industry. With constant support from the GSJF, we have the possibility to build projects that connect within our office and within our community. We\u2019re excited for what is to come,\u201d said <strong>Araujo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read more stories about Local Impact:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonymusic.com\/inside-sony-music\/mexico-global-social-justice-fund-questions-and-answers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Local Impact Reports: SME Mexico Social Justice Task Force On Making a Difference<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonymusic.com\/inside-sony-music\/local-impact-reports-sony-music-canada-on-making-a-difference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Local Impact Reports: SME Canada Social Justice Task Force On Making a Difference<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonymusic.com\/inside-sony-music\/asia-social-justice-task-force\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Local Impact Reports: SMG Asia Social Justice Task Force on Making a Difference<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is part of our Local Impact Report series: a collection of informal catchup-ups where we connect with different members of Social Justice Task Forces within Sony Music.
