Through this involvement, PENNY contributes to the evaluation of local initiatives and supports projects that address community needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sustainability Board operates as a collaborative framework that brings together companies, NGOs, local authorities, and citizens to identify concrete urban challenges and support locally developed solutions. The program aims to move from isolated initiatives to integrated interventions built for the medium and long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a strategic partner, PENNY participates in co-creation processes, consultation sessions, project proposal evaluations, and dialogue with local authorities. At the same time, PENNY supports the program\u2019s entire portfolio of interventions in Ploie\u0219ti \u2014 the CIVITECA community hub, the \u201cSustainable in the Neighborhood\u201d micro-grant call, and the green space regeneration project \u2014 contributing to the development of a replicable and scalable collaboration model for more sustainable communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Sustainability Board provides the framework in which we can work together with local organizations, authorities, and experts to build interventions with real impact in communities. We support this program because we believe that environmental solutions and social cohesion come through collaboration, not isolated actions. We are pleased to contribute to projects that deliver visible results for both people and the city,\u201d says Claudia Ivan, Head of Sustainability at PENNY Romania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PENNY Romania\u2019s collaboration with community foundations began through its involvement in the Environmental Platform for Bucharest, a program of Funda\u021bia Comunitar\u0103 Bucure\u0219ti, which funded more than 40 initiatives between 2023 and 2025, with a cumulative value exceeding 10 million lei. This experience paved the way for a separate partnership through the Sustainability Board program, developed by the Federation of Community Foundations in Romania and Coca-Cola HBC, with PENNY Romania as a strategic partner and the Prahova Community Foundation as the local implementation partner. The 2025 round, carried out in Ploie\u0219ti, represents the first implementation of the Sustainability Board.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PENNY Rom\u00e2nia is a strategic partner of the Sustainability Board, a national program launched in 2025 and developed by Coca-Cola HBC Rom\u00e2nia through the #Dup\u0103Noi sustainability platform, together with Federa\u021bia Funda\u021biile Comunitare din Rom\u00e2nia and Funda\u021bia Comunitar\u0103 Prahova as the local partner.
