This paper reviewed different approaches to Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR) dimensions as well some definitions put up by different scholars on the subject matter. Literature on CSR has increased considerably over the years, but some scholars usually focus their attention on a single dimension approach. This contribution in addition to previous efforts reviewed different dimensions of CSR in more elaborate construct as it has led to a gap between what early authors argued on dimension and what current studies especially instrumentalist advocated. The paper is descriptive in nature and the population of the study is the managers and supervisors of these organizations. Annual reports of these firms was used and analyzed through correlation and regression techniques for data analysis. It was the view of this paper in relation to the previous ones that there is positive significant relationship between CSR and MS and positive relationship between CSR and FP, but no significant relationship between CSR and Liquidity. The paper revealed some findings amongst which are that: Organizations involving in CSR programs enhance their sales growth, ii) organizations with CSR programs have improved the welfare of the stakeholders and environmental issues etc. Based on these findings, the paper recommended that organizations should fully implement their CSR practices as it is viewed to improve their MS. Ii) Government and their agencies should make sure that firms comply with CSR practices and reward those that complied and punish those found wanting. Iii) Organizations should be honest in handling their ethical issues and their relationship with stakeholders if they want to sustain growth etc.
Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR dimensions, Firm performance, Market Share, Liquidity and Theories of CSR.
