ING Life India, in its 10th year of operations, today implemented a unique donation programme called ‘Gift & Get’ for the children of Project Sharan, giving them an opportunity to feel the pleasures of donating their old and unused items for the benefit of under-privilege children in Mumbai. As per the programme, children across the city were invited to ING Life Office in Mumbai, along with their parents with their old or unused toys, clothes, books and other such items which found no use amongst them. In return of these old items, children got a new gift from ING Life employees. The collected items were later donated by ING Life India branch employees to the local NGO partner, Project Sharan who would distribute it to under-privilege children.
Speaking about the programme, Mr. Rajeev Kanal, Executive Vice President, (West) said, ‘We found a lot of enthusiasm amongst children for our programme, and are happy to have provided this unique opportunity for them to feel the pleasures of donation. We are thankful to all those children who donated their old items for under-privileged children in the city. We will be handing over these items to our NGO partner, Project Sharan. Our Gift & Get programme is a unique platform, which was implemented across over 200 cities in India today!’
ING Life India works actively for under-privilege children through its ING Vysya Foundation. Some of the activities that employees participate through the Foundation include volunteer programmes, such as learning through fun and fund raising activities. Gift & Get programme is a unique platform, where ING Life employees included children in the city in helping under-privilege children.
