Utkarsh Foundation distributes 5 lakh chocolates, 10 lakh wafer packets

Utkarsh Healthcare Foundation India, which has been working for health and education of women and children since 1998, has distributed more than 5 lakh chocolates among the needy and children since the lockdown began.

“Children are the ones who suffer the most during times such as the ongoing lockdown. It was with the aim to bring smiles on their faces that we decided to distribute chocolates and cheese wafer packets among them. We have distributed over 5 lakh chocolates and 10 lakh cheese wafer packets among children in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, so far,” says Kusum Vyas Kaul.      

The statement said that the backbone of the massive project was India Food Banking Network, which is supported by various FMCG companies such as Britannia, Nestle, and Mondelez.

To recognize efforts of doctors and healthcare workers, who are working tirelessly in the wake of the Covid-19 breakdown, the Foundation has also started distribution of Hershey’s Protein Milkshake and protein cookies among doctors and medical staff of different Hospitals in Ahmedabad.

For over two decades, Utkarsh Health Foundation has undertaken a host of developmental projects so far, the core of which has been the physical and mental development of children. Aided by a number of think tanks and social scientists, the Foundation has been working hard for uplift of the marginalized.
