🌟 **From Boardrooms to Classrooms: Aviratha's CSR Partners Empower Notebook Distribution Campaign** 🌟 Aviratha Trust's Notebook Distribution program is largely dependent on public donations raised annually, with individual donors from friends and family playing a crucial role. This year, we're thrilled to announce that Aviratha has received significant CSR funds from four organizations. Kennametal's contribution of INR 7,00,000 provided notebooks to 3500 students, while Pure Storage's INR 5,00,000 benefited 2500 students. Synamedia's INR 1,85,000 supported 925 students and Accurex Solutions Private Limited's INR 1,50,000 helped 750 students get access to notebooks. We are deeply grateful to these organizations for their belief in our cause and their commitment to creating a positive change in the lives of young learners. While we continue to rely on individual donors—our unsung heroes—these recent contributions amplify our impact and bring notebooks to even more deserving children. Together, we're writing a brighter future, one page at a time! 📚🌟 #CSR #EducationForAll #AvirathaTrust #Gratitude

🌍🌱 Celebrating World Environment Day with Aviratha Trust! 🌱🌍 At Aviratha Trust, we believe in the power of collective action to create a sustainable future for generations to come. As we commemorate World Environment Day, it's a moment to reflect on our commitment to environment, one of the five core areas of our operations. Through our dedicated efforts, we're proud to share that we've planted more than 2000 saplings across various locations, including Kalagrama, Spoorthidhama, Nele Foundation, and several Government Schools across Karnataka. We have collaborated with Agumbe Rainforest Research Station and contributed to their afforestation efforts. These initiatives serve as a tangible contribution to combat climate change and promote biodiversity. Beyond just planting trees, we've forged partnerships with like-minded organizations such as YUVA to amplify the message of conserving our environment and reach a wider audience. #WorldEnvironmentDay #Environment #Sustainability #AvirathaTrust #GreenInitiatives #ClimateAction #TogetherWeCan
