Being an organization that intends to promote social well-being, Drive India Enterprise Solutions Limited (DIESL) has taken up the initiative to promote Corporate Sustainability (CS) and to work towards social causes, by helping and improving the condition of the underprivileged, disadvantaged and the needy in the Society.
Education can change an individual’s life. So to improve and help underprivileged children to get educated, DIESL has adopted a community center (Bandra, Mumbai) in The Akanksha Foundation and fund the cost of the centre by providing for faculty fees, books, uniforms, rentals for the centre etc. DIESLites also contribute voluntarily every month, a part of their salaries for this cause. Many DIESLites, including Mr. Ajay Chopra (CEO, DIESL) act as mentors to the children from the community centre. The children are encouraged to visit DIESL Corporate, interact with the mentors, share their life experiences and seek guidance and help whenever required.
