2022.
Nai Subah Foundation, a
young start-up NGO dedicated to opportunity creation for the marginalized
sections of the society, has announced its collaboration with the Shaurya
Foundation Trust, a Non-Profit Organisation providing balanced education with
functional academics, athletics, arts, and service for persons with special
needs. Along with Anandk and Paramount Products, an upcoming paint ancillary
unit based in Faridabad, the two NGOs have rolled out an Assisted
Employment Program 'Packaging Panthers'. The initiative is aimed to
generate sustainable employment for young neurodiverse individuals.
Through this initiative, Nai
Subah’s partner company, Anandkand Paramount will outsource semi-skilled
packaging and production work to select individuals from Shaurya Foundation
Trust at its Palwal site, creating employment initially for 12 select
neurodiverse individuals from Shaurya Foundation Trust. Based on the success of
the pilot program, the model will scale up and more employment opportunities
will be created.
Says Tarini Malhotra,
Founder, Nai Subah Foundation “There is a fundamental need to tap
into the talented neuro diverse workforce and provide them with progressive
employment opportunities utilising their unique skill sets and capabilities.
Through our initiative with Shaurya Foundation and Anandkand Paramount
Products, we would not only be able to generate uplifting employment
opportunities for young neuro diverse individuals but will also be able to
enhance their income generation capability, self-esteem, and independence.”
“Shaurya
Foundation works to strengthen and empower persons with intellectual
disability. We have created a unique and innovative employment model providing
inhouse working environment for them. “Packaging Panthers” unit for packaging
and production has been set up to enable them to work and earn in a supported
environment without compromising on quality and standard”,
said Ravi Gupta, Founder & Chairman, Shaurya Foundation Trust.
Also speaking on the
occasion, Ayush Banga, Managing Director, Anandkand Paramount Products said
“It gives me a great sense of satisfaction to have such special individuals
working and contributing to our business, while building their own experience
and careers. With the help of Nai Subah Foundation, we are able to engage a
special community which usually doesn’t get any opportunity to generate income
and lead enriched lives.”
