Company distributed New Year gifts to one of the most deprived sections of the society
Moving a step further towards its social responsibility, Emaar MGF, one of India’s leading real estate developers,
today distributed New Year gifts to 350 children at its Palm Hills and
Palm Gardens project sites in Gurgaon. Overall, the company will
distribute 650 gifts to children of construction workers in Gurgaon and
Mohali, through its campaign, ‘Gift a Smile’. These are children of
construction workers employed at the company’s various projects in
Gurgaon and Mohali. The gift distribution is a part of company’s
‘EmCare’ campaign through which it conducts various activities for
welfare of deprived sections of society.
Since
its inception, Emaar MGF has conducted many CSR campaigns thereby
helping many lives to survive, grow and keep smiling. The company is
running a day care center for
children of construction workers, at Palm Drive in Gurgaon through
Mobile Creches, an organization which provides education, nutrition and
health to children through the day. As part of its CSR mandate, the
company also distributes free blankets to its construction workers every
year. So far it has distributed more than 25,000 free blankets across
India.
Emaar MGF is involved in CSR campaigns like donation to various relief funds,
donation to NGOs working in the field of disability, education and
healthcare. Last year, in the month of July when Uttarakhand witnessed
one of the worst disasters, Emaar MGF contributed Rs 1 crore towards
relief and rehabilitation along with Rs 3 Lakhs which employees
contributed separately.
On
this occasion Dr. K Ramamurthy, CEO-Projects at Emaar MGF said, “It is
indeed a privileged moment for us. We believe it is imperative for an
organization to give back a humble part of what it takes from the
society. We continuously strive to be an entity that is socially
committed by bringing together all our existing processes under the
ambit of Corporate Social Responsibility through proactive initiatives.”
He further said, “Construction workers
are those who work behind the stage towards bringing our dream homes
into reality. At times, we tend to forget their contribution. We at
Emaar MGF always try to recognize their efforts. We distribute blankets
in winter; organize day care centers for the children and health
check-up camps on a regular basis. Our sole aim is to bring smile on the
faces of these children.”- CCI Newswire
