Core concept: Conjunction usage in condition-result relationships. The correct answer is A. 'Whereby' specifically introduces a clause showing the method through which something is achieved. B 'thereby' requires a gerund structure. C 'whereas' shows contrast. D 'wherein' refers to location within something. Key distinction: 'whereby' directly connects the action (CSR programs) with its consequence (gaining trust).
