Toyota Kirloskar Motor Employees Extend Support To Families Affected By Cyclone Fani
A group of Toyota employees has gathered to put together ‘Emergency Relief Kits’ for families affected by the aftermath caused by Cyclone Fani earlier this month. This voluntary initiative amassed strong support for swift relief activities currently being undertaken by the authorities.
‘ICARE’ – an employee voluntary initiative is an effort in line with the company’s commitment to sustained community development. This drive actively involves the employees and aims to enhance their understanding of the increasing challenges that victims of such natural disaster face, thus call for priority actions to counter this scenario through a series of interactive programs.
Commenting on the initiative, Mr. N. Raja, Deputy Managing Director – Toyota Kirloskar Motor said, “We stand by the people of Odisha in this time of crisis, and hope that our small contribution will bring about a positive change in their lives. We pray that the life in Odisha takes a speedy return to normalcy. At Toyota, we believe in giving back to the society and build a better future for the next generation. Our objective is not only manufacturing ever-better cars, but also enrich community lives. ‘ICARE’ is driven solely by the passion of our employees and shared responsibility to make a big difference in the society we live in.”
This is Toyota’s seventh employee volunteerism initiative under ICARE that focuses on the theme of Social Contribution. Enthusiastic employees dedicated their personal day to assemble Emergency Relief Kits, packing more than 32,000 ready-to-eat meals, 150 solar lights along with other utility items that will help more than 150 families for the next six months.
