Food For Education

Corporate Volunteering Through Community Engagement
Our teams across Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana participated in a Corporate Volunteering initiative at partner skill development centres, engaging beneficiaries through career-focused workshops and interactive activities. The initiative strengthened employability and confidence while advancing our DEI agenda, with PwDs representing over 1% of our workforce, and reinforcing our commitment to inclusive growth beyond the workplace.
Spreading Joy Through Christmas Celebrations
Our team in Karnataka, visited Seva-in-Action (SiA) for Christmas Eve celebrations including Carol Singing and lunch distribution to all the beneficiaries (candidates, parents/caregivers and staff). The lunch of packed meals (Plum cake included) was provided by our Bangalore CPU with RD’s approval. SiA again being our partnered organization for our neurodivergent hiring, this again I consider a sustainable engagement.

The initiative aimed to bring joy during the festive season while providing essential learning resources to support children’s education and overall development, reinforcing our commitment to making a positive impact beyond the workplace.
