New Delhi, June 13, 2022
CNH Industrial (NYSE: CNHI / MI: CNHI) has further expanded its CSR initiatives to support the education of socio-economically disadvantaged students with three projects in India. Partnering with the NGO Buddy 4 Study, Project Unnati was launched by Chun Woytera, President Asia Pacific, CNH Industrial, during her recent visit to India. The initiative aims to provide financial assistance to some 70 school children and students from 30 Industrial Training Institute (ITI) in Gurgaon and Noida who have experienced significant economic hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes a mentorship program whereby CNH Industrial employees will mentor and guide the students with their knowledge, experience and skills.
Project Udaan was launched in March 2022, and preliminary preparatory work is underway to enable the onboarding of students in the months of July and August when the new Engineering session begins. In collaboration with the NGO Katalyst, the project aims to empower socio-economically disadvantaged women by providing scholarship support for four years of engineering college. The program includes a 600-hour proprietary and scientifically researched curriculum focused on developing soft skills, communication, English proficiency, career readiness, corporate etiquette, technical skills and advanced technology.
