PNB MetLife celebrated its 21st anniversary with a tree planting drive at Dive Village, Pune, contributing to a sustainable ecosystem in the years to come. PNB MetLife leaders, employees, distributors and partners volunteered to plant the saplings in the ecologically important area, supporting the local community in efforts to nurture trees and green degraded land. The plantation drive was conducted under ‘Glow Green’, a PNB MetLife initiative that is an integral part of the insurer’s commitment to creating sustainable community-led change. Under this initiative, PNB MetLife aims to plant and nurture 40,000 trees across four locations in Uttrakhand, Delhi NCR, Karnataka and Pune. These saplings will increase around 50+ acres of green cover in India and within their entire lifespan will help produce around 35,000+ tons of oxygen and capture around 20,000+ tons of carbon dioxide.
Club Mahindra, promoted by Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Limited, has launched
Project Saksham which aims at encouraging entrepreneurship among women and help them earn a livelihood. In addition to empowering women, this project will be tackling the problem of low female labour force participation, while also aiding them in getting an additional source of income. It has been observed that while women may have skills and the drive to pursue their own ventures, they lack the necessary tools and resources to do so, and that is the very problem this project will be tackling. Project Saksham begins with the identification of beneficiaries, who will be shortlisted in order of priority. Those who possess necessary skills but lack the means to kickstart their venture, as well as those most in need of support will be at the top of this list. A total of 144 women will be shortlisted and provided material and equipment worth Rs. 15,000 each.
