PVR NEST
Projects operating under the CSR initiative
of PVR Cinemas
PVR NEST, (PVR Network for Enablement and Social Transformation) is the corporate social responsibility initiative of PVR Cinemas. At PVR Nest, we believe that companies can make a real, effective difference in improving the quality of life in the communities where they operate. Our vision is to work together with the government bodies and the community, spearheading a movement for better social conditions around us.
To begin with, PVR NEST has identified two key concern areas: disadvantaged urban children and the deteriorating urban environment.
Three projects have been initiated to address the above:
PVR CHILDSCAPES
The CHILDSCAPES project seeks to transform the lives and restore the dignity of street children through educational, social and cultural activities. The project works with a floating population of about 75 disadvantaged children, most of whom are beggars, rag-pickers or destitute.
The project has been piloted at the Vasant Vihar Shopping Centre in association with Katha’s Tamasha Roadshow and the active support of the Vasant Vihar Market Traders’ Association.
PVR KI PAATHSHALA
The PAATHSHALA program aims to enable economically disadvantaged children to finish their schooling. The programme also offers academic coaching and counselling. The pilot is being implemented by Literacy india , with 25 children of Village Ishapur (a predominantly scheduled caste village in Haryana).
Green PVR: Valuing Nature
The Green PVR: Valuing Nature project is an effort to optimize the use of existing urban infrastructure and public service facilities, thereby delivering a better city experience to all citizens. It is an endeavour to demonstrate environmental conservation practices in and around PVR Cinemas Halls. The project brings together the efforts of the neighborhood, the Market Association, MCD and DDA.
