Muthoot Finance and NBFC, in association with Third Planet Foundation, has initiated a special programme to support the world’s largest vaccination drive as a part of its Corporate Social Responsibility Programme.
This CSR initiative will be providing free pick-up and drop services to the nearest vaccination centre for the impoverished, vulnerable, underprivileged and differently-abled individuals across Delhi, Gurugram and Faridabad. Four vehicles, dedicated helpline numbers to schedule free pick-up and drop service along with an experienced field team have been deployed as part of this programme. The service is being specially focussed towards those sections of our society which have limited means and almost no access to smartphones, the internet et al.
Alexander George Muthoot, Deputy Managing Director, The Muthoot Group, emphasises, “In line with the vision of our beloved Group Chairman, Late MG George Muthoot, we are committed towards the upliftment of our society. Through this initiative, we are providing free transport service to the elderly and the less-privileged sections of our society in order to help them get vaccinated easily and facilitate the ongoing vaccination drive.”
“Third Planet Foundation is dedicated to supporting underprivileged communities across India. We are closely working towards the socio-economic development of the communities during the pandemic and at the same time, preparing for post-Covid rehabilitation, which we believe is critical for sustainability and growth,” says Jatin Dhall, Executive Director at Third Planet Foundation.
