Touching Lives
Our greatest natural resource is the minds of our children- Walt Disney
At Bilcare, Corporate Social Responsibility is an itegral part of our focus from the very beginning. Bilcare Foundations’s objective is to enrich and empower the lives of the underprivileged, especially childre, by ensuring that they receive appropriate opportunities and genuine guidance that can propel them onwards the path of success. We work with children and our activities are focussed towards ensuring a brighter and better future for them.
A key event during the year was the launch if ‘Window To The World’, an initiative of Bilcare Foundation for the school children of the Rajgurunagar village, near Pune, in India; it was aptly launched by Former President of India, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam whose fondness for children is well known. On this occasion, around 500 children from 14 local schools interacted with Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam where he affectionately told the children the importance of education and knowledge.
”Window To the World’ is a local project out of Pune in India to reach out to the children to familiarize them with the English language and the Internet. The aim of this initiative is to equip them to teach out and know the world. This programme devised by ” Bilcare Foundation” for children in the age group of 14-17, involves a fully equipped Audio Visual Van with all latest devices which will educate the children in an interactive way. These vans go around all local schools in Rajgurunagar village on a regular bais to impart knowledge with assistance from school teachers and Bilcare Foundation’s volunteers.
“A bit of fragrance clings to the hand that gives flowers” – Bilcare believes that by giving back to society it ensures a holistic, sustainable growth for itself. From humble beginnings in 1983, today we operate in USA, Singapore, India, UK, Germany, Brazil, China and Australia. Nonetheless, we are dedicated in our mission to enchance quality of human life by allowing people to live better and achieve more.
Bilcare Foundation is spearheaded by employees, their families and other volunteers. Across the globe, wherever we do business, we want to be part of community adding value in a meaningful way.
At the end, all the work we do with children stem from the belief that “Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.” – John W. Whitehead
