Abstract
The Coca-Cola Company (Coke), the 118-year-old soft drink producer and US-based multinational, has engaged in various philanthropic and social initiatives in the communities where it operates, across the globe. Especially under its ''think local, act local'' policy, the company moved from philanthropy to taking social responsibility, which involved greater participation of the company in the improvement of the communities'' health, education, and environment. This case provides scope for discussing the economic benefits of corporate social responsibility, apart from identifying the humanitarian side of the multinational corporate culture.
