Clean drinking water is a fundamental right of every kid, and AquaKraft is dedicated to making it a reality. AquaKraft Projects Pvt. Ltd. was given a mandate by Lok Shikhshan Sanchanalay, Madhya Pradesh, to establish Clean Drinking Water Systems in 50 specified schools, which will be supported through CSR. AquaKraft did a complete baseline evaluation of the requirement based on this mandate and successfully solicited CSR from Hyundai Motor India Foundation. As a result, AquaKraft’s School Drinking Water Purifiers were placed in 50 government schools across 7 districts in Madhya Pradesh State, benefiting over 30000 children as well as over 3000 teaching and non-teaching personnel.
This has been dubbed a landmark project since it will have a direct impact on the health, attendance, and well-being of children on this scale. The Hyundai Motor India Foundation (HMIF), the philanthropic arm of Hyundai Motor India Ltd. (HMIL), developed this campaign under Hyundai’s CSV philosophy of ‘CONTINUE’ and the ‘Safe Drinking Water for a Better Future’ project.
