Blue Dart Express Limited
Your company is a socially responsible corporate and has undertaken numerous projects to enrich communities and the society. Blue Darters have opted for �vocational training� as their core Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programme. The project �Blue Edge� has been rolled out. During the year, on Children�s Day, we proudly initiated the project �Muskan�, through which all Blue Darters at Headquarters collected toys, books and clothes and the proceeds were then donated to an NGO that works for Street children in Mumbai. Your company also decided to � Go Green� this year and piloted the bicycle project in Mumbai.
Brand�s Commitment to Society
Blue Dart � a socially responsible corporate � has opted for �Vocational Training� as its core CSR Programme. A dipstick study was conducted across the organization where employees were asked to choose among environment, education and women/child health. Out of this, �vocational training/education� received maximum hits � for its value delivery, synergy with the business objectives, ability to bridge the trained manpower gap, emotional connect, community involvement and moreover because of its credibility and long-term commitment to society.
On 04th Feb 2008, Blue Dart, along with its partnering NGO Oasis India, kicked off its training programme � BLUE EDGE to enhance and create employability for India�s youth at a premise in Bandra East, refurbished solely for the purpose of the training.
BLUE EDGE would entail training of approximately 50 beneficiaries in a 4-month course on General Knowledge, English Speaking, Basic Computer Skills, Life Sciences and Customer Orientation. Blue Dart�s training would enlighten the beneficiaries about the possible employment opportunities, enable them make informed choices but, moreover, it would bring stability into the lives of the lesser privileged.
Team Blue Dart stands totally committed to this initiative and are optimistic of making a difference in a few lives all of whom they endeavour to empower with knowledge skills and attitude to make them employable in society and contribute positively to it.
