The real estate company offers some relief to the affected community by providing meals
Under the Embassy Cares program, around 2,50,000 meals have been distributed to daily wage workers and migrant families across several locations in Bangalore. Embassy Group provided the 3,500 families of students of government school, by offering a total of 1,47,000 meals in the form of ration kit. These kits contain rice, dal, channa, oil, spices and vegetables. Distribution of the kits took place in Government Schools across North and Central Bangalore.
As part of these interventions, daily wage and migrant workers in the areas of Ulsoor, Mahadevpura and Koramangala have benefitted through the distribution of food rations.
Aditya Virwani, Chief Operating Officer, Embassy Group, said, “With so many underprivileged members of our communities, daily wage and migrant workers trying to make ends meet during this crisis, it’s important that we all step up to do our part. We believe that this pandemic can only be contained if we all stay at home and provide for those who need basic food and other necessities to survive. We are grateful to our corporate tenants, our employees and customers who have extensively supported our efforts.”
Eager to contribute towards mitigating the negative impacts of Covid-19, employees of the Embassy Group voluntarily donated from their salaries towards relief initiatives. In total, Embassy has raised Rs. 72 Lakhs through employee donations. Embassy’s contractors are also supporting construction workers at their camps sites through providing food rations, clean drinking water and safety measures such as regular sanitization and handwashing stations.
