Little drops make an ocean!
Community
Our commitment to food also implies that we have a responsibility to fight hunger and eliminate wastage. Our involvement in various community-based initiatives are listed below
‘NO Hunger’ program
The NO Hunger program was designed with a single and simple self-explanatory motto – Combat the
concept of hunger and malnutrition and eliminate the same by proactively engaging with various
stakeholders and affected parties at various levels. This is done through
Volunteering

communities.
Knowledge Sharing
Undertake food waste education campaigns in corporate campuses and catering locations and
provide life-skills training and opportunities for the underprivileged, unemployed and homeless.
Food donation

Financial donations

public and private agencies.
We are also involved with organizations like ‘Little Drops’ near Sriperumbadur in ensuring that their
daily food requirements are met.
