GMR Varalakshmi Foundation celebrated its 25th year

When I got to know about the 25th Anniversary of GMR Varalakshmi Foundation, I decided to attend the same. It was a high security zone. We had to take our special invites to the area.

Delhi international airport Private Limited (DIAL) is the consortium comprising of GMR group, Airport Authority of India and Fraport. DIAL is driven by GMR group's vision to make a difference to the society by contributing to the economic development of the country and improving the quality of life of local communities. There was an exquisite display of various functions of GMR Varalakshmi Foundation. In the area of skill India GMRVF operates in 10 Rural and three urban training centres.The Foundation works with the communities around those areas where the group has a business operations today it has a pan national presence and other support community work in Nepal

There is a strong focus on the women empowerment. 300 self help groups with 2500 products made by these women are marketed to empower initiative and women are earning between 7000 to 8000 per month.  I loved the textile items presented like saaris, suits, purses, bags and many more things.



Health care (Mobile medical units, maternal and child care to name a few), education, Swachh Bharath, skill training are few of the focus areas that GMR Varalakshmi Foundation takes care of.
