Responsibility Towards Growth

Distribution of T-shirts to the underprivileged

At Kogta Financial India Limited, we frequently organize t-shirt distribution drives for the less fortunate. For those who live in slums and on the streets, meeting basic requirements of food and shelter is tough enough and they compromise on clothing by wearing worn-out clothes. With this concern, Kogta Foundation took steps to fulfil their need.

 

Donation to Goshala

We contributed to the upkeep of cows at a shelter which provides them with food and cares for their wellbeing. The dual benefit of this activity is that it also provides livelihoods to people undertaking these activities.

 

Be a Good Samaritan Awareness Campaign

The Good Samaritan law was created to protect individuals who help accident victims from any legal proceedings. The legislation encourages individuals to come to the rescue of others suffering from injury, with good intentions and without expecting any reward or payment in return. Kogta Financial has taken the initiative to promote road safety awareness and the Good Samaritan law, by involving NCC cadets to informed people about the law through posters and pamphlets. These cadets visit various prominent places, such as parks of the city and made the general public aware that they should fearlessly help people who might be injured in road accidents, within the crucial golden hours, to save their lives.

 

Food donation - Feeding Hands at Jaipur, Rajasthan

Through this initiative, food is served to the needy via food trucks called Feeding Hands at different areas in the city of Jaipur. These food trucks/vans maintain good quality, quantity and cleanliness while preparing the food. This initiative entails feeding the hungry, with nutritious food to ensure good health.

 

Kids Educational Welfare (Donation of fees to children from underprivileged homes)

Education is a continuous and life changing process and we feel that no children should be deprived of their right to education, especially since they essentially are the country’s future. Therefore, an initiative has been taken to provide school fees for children from underprivileged homes. This should go a long way towards ensuring their education continues and their futures are brighter.

 

Rahat-ae-Sard - (Blanket Donation to the needy)

A pan-India blanket donation drive was initiated by the Kogta Financial India Limited so that the less fortunate would be able to sustain themselves during the winters, which are very harsh.

Distribution of Blankets

Between December 2020 and January 2021, Jaipur recorded its 2nd lowest temperatures in 55 years. Many residents in the slums were suffering due to this severe cold. Kogta Foundation donated blankets to keep them warm. Majority of these blankets were distributed to the elderly, who were living alone, and to people from extremely poor families.

 

Blood Donation Drive

Giving blood is often associated with saving lives. People with illnesses and medical conditions, such as anemia, hemophilia, cancer and sickle cell disease often need blood transfusions to survive. The World Health Organisation (WHO) suggests using the blood quota of 1% of a country’s population as a rough approximation of its blood requirements. According to those figures, India faces a 1.9-million- unit blood shortage, which translates into about 60 tankers (according to FY. 2016-17 Government of India statistics).

 

Installation of Water Coolers at RTO Bhilwara and Anuthiya Gav, near Bijainagar

Several water coolers have been installed by Kogta Financial (India) Limited at RTO Bhilwara and Anuthiya Gav, near Bijainagar in Rajasthan, in order to provide chilled potable drinking water throughout the warm summers. We also ensure that these water coolers are repaired and maintained in a timely manner.
