Cycle Pure Agarbathies powered by the sponsors for Mysuru Warriors had decided to contribute an added Rs 2,00,000 towards social empowerment. A cheque of Rs 1,00,000 each to all the cause partners was handed over by Arjun Ranga, Co-owner Mysuru Warriors & Managing Director, Cycle Pure Agarbathies, hoping for an inspiring change. The event saw the presence of Arjun Ranga, Balachandar, Convenor, KSCA, Mysuru Zone, Vinod Eshwer, Creative Director of ReforestIndia, Dr. Ravishankar, Medical Director, Usha Kiran Eye Hospital, Dushyanth, Regional Head-South Asia, Deutsche Cleft Kinderhilfe and Nikhilesh M M, CEO, Kalisu Foundation.

Deutsche Cleft Kinderhlife, has been helping children combat cleft lip and palate, from all over the world. Children with a cleft lip are normally at the receiving end of ridicule and peer pressure, because of local superstitions and social reasons. Deutsche Cleft Kinderhlife aims to provide a comprehensive treatment to the children and make their lives better.

Kalisu Foundation has taken up the war against the lack of education by introducing features in schools like libraries and other facilities in order to make schooling more fun for children. The Youth at Kalisu foundation strive to provide high-quality education to children studying in government schools, thus enabling them to maximise their potential.

Usha Kiran Eye Hospital is one of the veteran leaders in the ophthalmology sphere. Their hospitals comprise a talented team of sub-specialists driven towards giving their patients a new lease of life through their wide range of eye-care treatments.

Reforest India combats the alarming levels of carbon dioxide by planting trees, in both urban and rural areas. Apart from global cooling, Reforest India’s initiatives bring about increased biodiversity, rainfall, groundwater levels and stabilisation of local climate.

Speaking about the initiative at a press conference at Press Club here on Saturday, November 24, Arjun Ranga said, “Holistic development is a way of life for us at N R Group. In fact, a significant part of the gains has been contributed for socially relevant causes in the past as well. We are glad that through these associations we are able to bring about a change in the lives of the people in need and thereby build a strong future for our country.”

“Deutsche Cleft Kinderhlife, Kalisu Foundation, Reforest India and Ushakiran Eye Hospital have already been recognised for some of the spectacular work they have been doing in their respective fields. We are delighted to support them with our successful campaign this year, which amounted to us donating Rs 4 Lakh to their respective causes”, added Arjun Ranga.
