JSPL Foundation chairperson Shallu Jindal has been honoured as one of the 'Top 10 Impact Leaders of India' during the 'India CSR Leadership Summit - 2021', organised by India CSR Network on January 16.
Jindal led JSPL Foundation, the CSR arm of Jindal Steel & Power Limited (JSPL) which provided about half a million meals (cooked food and dry food kits) to migrant workers, daily wage earners, street dwellers, destitutes, truckers, shelter homes and other socially vulnerable populace. Besides, the Foundation provided sanitizers, hand wash, disinfectants, masks which were manufactured as a part of the Income Generation Activities by more than a thousand women in Self Help Groups.
This assured everyday income to the underprivileged families during the cash crunch period. Thousands of dairy, vegetable and mushroom farmers associated with the Foundation were kept immune to distress selling by facilitating sale of their farm produce in plant townships.
