French term or phrase: action citoyenne

Company X "s’engage au quotidien dans le développement durable et l’action citoyenne"

Something along the lines of being a "good corporate citizen," perhaps

corporate social responsibility

Explanation:
or just social responsibility:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR, also called corporate responsibility, corporate citizenship, and responsible business) is a concept whereby organizations consider the interests of society by taking responsibility for the impact of their activities on customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders, communities and other stakeholders, as well as the environment. This obligation is seen to extend beyond the statutory obligation to comply with legislation and sees organizations voluntarily taking further steps to improve the quality of life for employees and their families as well as for the local community and society at large
