Hyundai celebrates Teachers’ Day with project ‘Shikshak’

Chandigarh:  Hyundai Motor India Ltd., country’s first smart mobility solutions provider and the largest exporter since inception today announced industry’s first and the biggest social initiative Project ‘Shikshak’ in the field of education for ‘COVID-19 Warriors’ children.
 
“Not all heroes wear capes.” -  This proverb has been exemplified by COVID-19 Warriors across the world. They didn’t fight evil with super power but tirelessly helped the people most vulnerable across the world by serving the community before family. These superheroes spent days and nights nursing COVID-19 patients back to health and ensured safety while missing their own families and loved ones. In such situation, invariably their children got affected in multiple ways, one of which is reduced access to education. Schools have switched to online classes due to the lockdown. Many children of Corona Warriors are unable to attend online schooling because they do not have a laptop/desktop or a tablet.
 
As a token of respect and offer peace of mind to such warriors, Hyundai Motor India through their foundation is reaching out to their children offering help under the project ‘Shikshak’. Aligned to ‘Right to Education’, HMIL is committed to provide 1000 electronic educational devices across Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Ahmedabad and Kolkata to the children of Corona Warriors to continue their education online and do well in it.

Commenting on the Project – ‘Shikshak’, Mr. S.S Kim, MD & CEO, Hyundai Motor India Ltd. said, “Children are the future of every country and to celebrate this year’s Teachers Day in a special way, HMIL has commenced the unique Project ‘Shikshak’ under ‘Hyundai Cares’ campaign.”
