The 3 E’s are intended to grapple with challenges faced by the poor and the marginalized sections of society. ` As per bhuta rin, we are in debt from the time we were born, as we take resources from the environment, it’s our duty to pay back to our forefathers, the environment, plants, and animals. It’s time we engaged those around us to make that real difference in engaging the lives of many. With our unmatched spirit, we consistently strive to support millions of lives through our social initiatives and solutions, says Vineet Mittal, Chairperson, Avaada Group.  

It should be the moral responsibility of corporates to give back to society and during the ongoing Daan Utsav, we reiterate our commitment to work towards the betterment of society. Our initiatives in the fields of education, health, environment, electrification are a reflection of our resolve to play a pivotal role in transforming India,” added Mittal.  

Avaada is a culmination of conducting businesses driven for higher purposes and the Foundation, through its Community Development Certificate (CDC) and Grow Forest Mechanism (GFM), has benefited the environment to change the world into a resilient living place. In line with SDGs, we have launched several humanitarian programs aimed towards women empowerment, quality education, healthcare and environmental protection in rural surroundings.
