Corporate Social Responsibility Survey
Location: https://tamucmarketing.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_03dljWrWPS1sBUx
Date: April 25th – May 13th
Corporate social responsibility is growing in importance among businesses globally.  Here in the United States several organizations have taken actions to reduce or eliminate harmful product, minimize pollution, curb dangerous or toxic chemicals, and remove known health-damaging products among others. Recently CVS Health became part of the effort to promote public health by discontinuing the sale of tobacco in its stores. We investigate the implications of this action on its overall performance.
By participating in and completing this survey, you are helping us document and make public the true implications or outcome of these activities on corporate performance and thus influence public policy decisions that support the health of US consumers.
If you have any questions or concerns about this study or if any problems arise, please contact the researcher:
