In these times of Coronavirus pandemic, sanitation workers with the municipal corporations have been at the forefront, putting their lives at risk in ensuring a clean and healthy environment, it said in a statement.
Speaking about the initiative, Relaxo Foundation President Ramesh Kumar Dua said: “Sanitation workers across the country are warriors on the frontlines, whose courage and commitment helps us stay safer. This global pandemic has brought to fore the realization of their silent, selfless service to the society which we do appreciate and acknowledge.”
Due to the nature of their work, it is critical for them to have easy-to-clean and comfortable slippers, he said.
Relaxo Foundation has also supported AIIMS, Delhi, and other hospitals in Haryana and Uttrakhand, in purchasing medical equipment besides aiding government administration and various charitable organizations in distributing relief materials for migrants and marginalized families.
Launched in 2015, Relaxo Foundation is the CSR arm of Relaxo Footwears Limited, and is guided by the philosophy of business that believes in collective development of all stakeholders, especially those at the bottom of the pyramid.
