Employees from transcosmos will engage in regular, ongoing dialogue with young adults aged 15 to 25 who lack traditional support systems. By facilitating these connections, the initiative seeks to replace the isolation often felt by vulnerable youth with a network of working professionals. The collaboration is a core component of the Collaborative Growth Society project, which encourages corporations to address systemic social issues through direct engagement rather than passive philanthropy.
transcosmos partners with SANKAKUSHA to mentor youth
Tokyo-based transcosmos is launching a six-month mentoring initiative alongside the nonprofit SANKAKUSHA, aiming to bridge the gap between young people facing adversity and the professional workforce. The program, supported by KEIZAI DOYUKAI, moves beyond standard job placement to focus on long-term social integration and personal development.
For the company, the partnership aligns with its corporate philosophy of fostering a fair environment and expanding possibilities for growth. Participating employees are expected to refine their active listening and communication skills by interacting with individuals from diverse backgrounds. SANKAKUSHA, which specializes in providing housing and community support for youth in challenging circumstances, views the program as a vital step in helping young people regain the confidence required to envision their own future professional and social paths.
