Social Responsibility

In 2008 OSIRIS decided to add a new page in its history, thus creating OSIRIS SOCIAL, with the aim of assisting poor people to achieve some of their dreams.

It is a priority of the OSIRIS group to introduce socially responsible practices in its operations. The group seeks not only to support Social Solidarity Institutions (Charities), as well as to promote the participation of its teams in the various projects of the same nature in which it is involved. In order to achieve these two objectives, in 2008 OSIRIS SOCIAL was created. Our employees are actively involved with the cause and visit regularly, the institutions supported by the group.

"It is essential that companies intervene in society in an active and responsible manner. It is essential to seek to improve the quality of life of individuals and of the community. At OSIRIS we intend to increase the well-being of children and their families, who need a healthy and happy environment. Nowadays the introduction of policies on social responsibility is crucial and it is of the utmost importance to think of sustainability and the impact of corporate actions in future generations."

More recently, OSIRIS again decided to support a young athlete. Marisa Costa is 37 years. At the age of 15 she was diagnosed with lupus. Her heart turned to veteran/athletics. After attaining several regional and national titles, she focused on the European Masters Championship of 2017 in Denmark, a challenge that she successfully reached. Throughout the world, OSIRIS always believed. We are very proud of Marisa´s achievements. We will continue to support her as we have up to now, and believing in our SHE-WOLF.

Everything started 15 years ago following a motorbike accident. A paraplegic, he has dedicated his life to hand cycling. His dreams were the 2016 Olympic Games. And "as those who always run reach their intent", he competed and prepared himself throughout Europe, since 2014, with the support of OSIRIS. In Rio de Janeiro there was no Portuguese representation in the sport of hand cycle. But André did not give up. Now, a double national champion, he aspires to the gold medal in 2020 at the Olympic Games in Japan. OSIRIS does as well. We are together André!
