Walplast provides educational support for girls in Navi Mumbai on Children’s Day 

Navi Mumbai, (Maharashtra) [India], 19th November 2024: Walplast, a leading manufacturer of building and construction materials, marked this Children’s Day with an inspiring initiative aimed at supporting and empowering underprivileged young girls. Through its CSR division, Walplast Welfare Foundation, and in collaboration with Project Nanhi Kali, Walplast hosted a memorable event at their Head Office at Navi Mumbai, providing over 100 girls from grades VI to VIII with resources to enhance their educational journey and cultivate essential life skills.

The Children’s Day event brought together Walplast employees, key stakeholders, and community members, with a focus on creating a meaningful and joyful experience for the participating girls. Highlights included engaging activities such as storytelling, art and craft, an interactive quiz, and a short film screening that underscored the importance of education and self-belief. The girls also received school supplies kits, further underscoring Walplast’s commitment to providing practical support for their academic growth.

Reflecting on the day, Chairman Mr. Ashok Mehta shared his thoughts: “As I reflect on today’s events, the sight of joy and determination in the eyes of these young girls remains etched in my memory. It was a truly heartwarming experience. Witnessing firsthand the transformative impact of education on these bright minds rekindled my belief in the power of knowledge. These girls, with their dreams and potential, are the very essence of our future. It is our solemn responsibility to nurture their growth and provide unwavering support. Every smile, every curious question, and every moment of wonder I witnessed today are testaments to the resilience and strength these girls possess. We are committed to not only equipping them with resources but also fostering confidence and igniting hope for the promising paths that lie ahead.”

Commenting on the Initiative Mr. Kaushal Mehta, Managing Director of Walplast, said, “For us, this is more than just giving back—it’s about inspiring these young girls to dream big and giving them the tools they need to realize their potential. Education and life skills training are at the heart of empowerment, and we believe these girls can grow to become leaders and changemakers in their communities. By nurturing their abilities to think critically, communicate effectively, and make sound decisions, we hope to inspire them to face challenges with confidence.”

Mr. Aniruddha Sinha, Senior Vice President – Marketing, CSR, Toll Manufacturing & Business Head – P2P Division at Walplast, elaborated on the day’s significance, “Celebrating Children’s Day with these young girls gives us a chance to connect in a meaningful way, offering support that reaches beyond academics. Our program fosters resilience and provides life skills to empower them as they grow. Witnessing their joy reaffirms our commitment to nurturing confidence and inspiring the leaders of tomorrow.”.”

Walplast’s Children’s Day event in Navi Mumbai follows the success of a recent program in Nashik, where over 160 girls took part in educational and skill-building activities. Through these efforts, Walplast Welfare Foundation shows its commitment to making a real difference.

Notably, this year marks the continuation of Walplast Welfare Foundation’s impactful partnership to support the education of 1,000 girls across several Indian cities, including Navi Mumbai, Nashik, Pune, Varanasi, and Prayagraj. Aligned with Walplast’s vision for sustainable social impact, the program emphasizes not only academic assistance but also sports, leadership training, and development of critical life skills to equip girls from economically disadvantaged backgrounds with the abilities needed for success in today’s world.

Last year, Walplast’s collaboration supported over 800 girls across districts like Palghar, Bharuch, and Varanasi, reflecting the foundation’s dedication to social responsibility. This Children’s Day event in Navi Mumbai further exemplifies Walplast’s ongoing commitment to fostering positive social change by supporting girls in their pursuit of education and self-reliance.
