By nurturing a disabled-friendly society, CavinKare has established prominent platforms to acknowledge the remarkable achievements and offer a strong support system to people with varying disabilities. \u2018Walk India\u2019 campaign is a step towards the direction of further strengthening the support for the disabled in the country and spreading awareness to various corners of the state and country.
\nCommenting on the initiative, Mr. C K Ranganathan, Chairman & Managing Director \u2013 CavinKare Pvt Ltd, said \u201cCavinKare\u2019s CSR efforts have consistently revolved around creating the right support system for the disabled community. In continuation to this, I am happy to note that our partnership with Freedom Trust has helped over 200 amputees in regions of Tamil Nadu. \u00a0We are confident that our joint efforts today in Kanchipuram will have a significant impact by bringing a new meaning to their lives.\u201d
\nStarting from the month of August, several special camps were organized in and around the regions of Kanchipuram, Chengalpattu, Thiruvanamalai and Vandavasai, wherein volunteers and expert personnel of the Trust were sent to personally meet the amputees and to take their measurement in order to create customized artificial limbs. Over the due course of time, the artificial limbs were custom-made for people and were handed over to them today.
\nMr. D Mohan \u2013 Joint Managing Director of CavinKare Pvt. Ltd.\u00a0said, \u201cCavinKare is thoroughly pleased to be a part of this campaign. I congratulate the team of Freedom Trust and CavinKare employees for conducting the camps, identifying the amputees and also extending their support in organizing today\u2019s event. We are confident that this initiative will help in offering the amputees a support system and encourage them to undertake everyday activities seamlessly.\u201d
\nDr. S Sunder \u2013 Founder & Managing Trustee, Freedom Trust\u00a0said \u201cWith the launch of our Walk India Project we have been able to make a great difference in the lives of the amputees. With fitment of their new limb, they are able to immediately stand up on their own with little bit training and carry on with their day to day activities. This truly empowers them. We are thankful to M\/s CavinKare for their continuous support and we look forward to their support in the years to come. The incidence of disability especially amputation is very high due to various causes like accidents, tumours or diabetes. The demand is very huge from the society and only with the support from Corporates like CavinKare that we can together reach out to them.\u201d<\/p>\n
