Dabur India Ltd has joined hands with the Uttarakhand Government to make Government Schools in Udham Singh Nagar ready and COVID-safe to welcome children once the lockdown is lifted. As part of this CSR initiative, Dabur is distributing portable battery-operated sanitizing machines, Sodium Hypochlorite Disinfectant solution and specially prepared face masks in 15 Government schools.
This special sanitation kit was distributed to the school principals by District Magistrate Ranjana Rajguru at a special function held in Rudrapur, Uttarakhand. These 15 schools cover two blocks of Gadarpur and Rudrapur in Udham Singh Nagar district of Uttarakhand. These kits would be used to sanitise the schools and disinfect the surface area when the schools open their gates to welcome back the students.
“On behalf of the entire Dabur family, we would like to wish all the students good health and safety. We are confident that together, we will be able to fight and defeat this virus. In these trying times, it is important to be prepared as we get back to restarting our education system. At Dabur, we have always believed in providing a safe and engaging environment for our little ones to focus on their educational pursuits. This CSR initiative is a step forward in this direction. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank District Magistrate Ranjana Rajguru and the parents of our students for sending their children back to school,” Dabur India Ltd CSR Head A Sudhakar said.
CSR of Dabur India Ltd has adopted 40 schools in the district and has been working towards improving the learning environment in these schools by upgrading the school infrastructure, supporting them with desk-benches and constructing school toilets blocks for students and teachers. In addition, the company has also been organizing awareness drives on precaution measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in villages in Udham Singh Nagar with the help of several women SHGs and community members.
