CSR: The Hydrating Heroes Initiative to support everyday heroes during heatwaves
Considering the alarming findings of the National Centre of Disease Control (NCDC) report, which revealed 46 heat-related deaths and 19,189 suspected heat stroke cases in May 2024 alone, Fast&Up, India’s leading electrolyte and energy brand, is proud to announce the launch of The Hydrating Heroes initiative. This ambitious program pledges to provide essential hydration and energy to 1 million daily heroes during the summer of 2024, addressing the increasing frequency and intensity of heat waves and heat stroke cases.
Fast&Up has partnered with organizations such as Hemkunt Foundation, Blue Dart and Robin Hood Army to distribute the popular and trusted electrolyte drink, Fast&Up Reload.
Fast&Up’s commitment extends to a diverse group of heroes, including daily delivery partners, police and postal service members, construction workers, support personnel and essential ground support and maintenance staff in aviation. Fast&Up has this initiative for the past two years and is committed to continuing it in the years to come, ensuring our heroes are always supported. Fast&Up rest assured, no matter the heat, we will be there to provide hydration and energy.
Our everyday heroes work tirelessly to serve our communities, often in challenging summer conditions,” said Mr Vijayaraghvan Venugopal, CEO at Fast&Up “With the rising temperatures and heatwaves, it’s crucial to ensure they stay hydrated and energized. The Hydrating Heroes Initiative is our way of giving back and thanking these incredible individuals. We are committed to supporting them with our best-in-class hydration solutions, and we invite everyone to join us in this endeavour. Together, we can make a significant impact and ensure that our heroes are well-equipped to handle their demanding roles, even in the toughest climatic conditions.”
Fast&Up Reload is designed to power up your water with five essential electrolytes, ensuring that individuals feel energized and hydrated within minutes of their first sip. This product hydrates twice as fast as water alone and contains ten times less sugar than other energy drinks, making it a healthier choice for staying refreshed and revitalized during demanding tasks.
These partnerships ensure that Fast&Up’s hydrating and energizing solutions reach those who need them most, especially during the scorching summer months.
