As a global premium auto brand, Mercedes-Benz has been celebrated for its radiant three-pointed star since the beginning of its corporate history. Dedicated to supporting the five core CSR pillars of environmental protection, education, music, arts and sports, culture of driving, and other charity and disaster relief programs – these have been integrated into the core values of the Mercedes-Benz brand. Throughout the years, with its relentless pursuit of excellence and sustainable responsibility, Mercedes-Benz will continue to do its best to contribute to the well-being and future of the Chinese society.

In June 2010, Mercedes-Benz (China) Ltd. announced the establishment of the Mercedes-Benz Star Fund in partnership with the China Youth Development Foundation (CYDF). With a start-up fund of RMB 30 million, the Mercedes-Benz Star Fund is its largest start-up amount for a charity fund worldwide and count as one of the biggest start-up charity funds in the Chinese auto industry.


Under the slogan of "Nurturing the World of Tomorrow", the Mercedes-Benz Star Fund provides an integrated platform supporting the five core CSR pillars of environmental protection, education, music, arts and sports, charity and disaster relief as well as culture of driving. The new initiative not only signifies Mercedes-Benz's long-term commitment to social causes in China but also sets a comprehensive and leadership model in advocating a sustainable cause. Set to become a positive driving force in CSR, this new milestone hopes to contribute significantly to the well-being of the future of Chinese society.
