CavinKare partners with Freedom Trust to donate artificial limbs to 100 amputees in Erode

CavinKare, today lit up the lives of 100 amputees with abundant joy, as they distributed artificial limbs through the 'Walk India' campaign organized by the NGO, Freedom Trust. With the event taking place at the company's Erode diary plant, the milestone achievement of maximum distribution created waves of strong determination amongst the recipients.



The inspiring speech given by Chief Guest, D Mohan, Joint Managing Director of CavinKare Pvt. Ltd. sparked a new meaning in the lives of the amputees gathered, as they were also handed over an artificial limb by him and the other senior dignitaries of the company and the trust.

Sharing his thoughts on the initiative, Chairman and Managing Director of CavinKare Pvt. Ltd. CK Ranganathan said “Creating a well-deserved inclusive society, especially for people with disabilities has always been an area our company focuses for several years. It is indeed heart warming to be associated with the ‘Walk India’ campaign along with Freedom Trust and play a catalytic role in the lives of these people. We are confident that this small step will be a new beginning to them and I encourage each and every one to make the best of their lives henceforth.”



During the month of October and November, several special camps were organized in and around the regions of Erode, wherein volunteers and expert personnel of the Trust were sent to personally meet the amputees and to take their measurement in order to create customised artificial limbs. Over the due course of time, the artificial limbs were custom-made for 100 people and were handed over to them today. D Mohan, Joint Managing Director of CavinKare Pvt. Ltd. said, 

“CavinKare 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 organising today's event. Our joint effort here in Erode today will surely be a meaningful stepping stone for their successful journey.’’

S Sunder, Founder and Managing Trustee, Freedom Trust said “A person who is handicapped due to the loss of a limb would be unable to discharge his daily duties, let alone go to his or her place of work.  Many of these persons with disability are employable, and very often it is the economic insufficiency or inaccessibility to mobility aids that makes them confined to home. In order for them to lead a life with dignity and avoid their dependence on their care givers, they need to be fit with prostheses (artificial limbs).”

“Making a handicapped person mobile contributes immensely to the upliftmentment of society. It is our mission to help such people from across the country get back on their feet literally and figuratively, and we are glad that CavinKare has extended their support and helped the campaign reach its biggest achievement ever. We are sure that this will further initialize other milestone achievements for the ‘Walk India’ campaign, as we will continue to spread the awareness of a disabled-friendly society amongst many others.”
