+Employees engaged till dateWith 7 successful editions, Pedal For The Planet is a unique cycling event for the public conceptualized by Embassy Group, one of India's leading property developers. As responsible developers with the largest office parks portfolio in the country and a host of luxury residential developments in Bangalore, we would like to be a pioneer to promote cycling to work for a greener planet. All proceeds raised at the Embassy Pedal for the Planet is donated to Colours of Life. Additionally one tree is planted per registration.
To enhance the areas around our business parks, employees from Embassy and our occupiers actively volunteer in activities to clean up and beautify various hotspots. Together we have engaged more than 1600 corporate employees and volunteers to give back to surrounding communities.
Embassadors continue to uphold Embassy’s Culture of Giving by actively donating towards charitable causes such as equitable education, provision of basic hygiene products to underprivileged children, and Covid-relief measures.
As part of our efforts to reiterate the importance of good health and hygiene practices, volunteers can go to government schools to interact with the children and help them build healthy habits. These sessions are conducted using our health kits and health awareness posters, workbooks and other collateral.
Sinchana is our annual extravaganza to celebrate Children’s Day, curated by our education partner, Colours of Life. Now in it’s 6th year, Sinchana aims at fostering talent through an interschool competition with participation from 15 government schools. The event hosts exciting categories for competition, ranging from academic (such as essay writing and public speaking) to artistic (including mehendi design, drawing, dance and song).
As part of our efforts to reiterate the importance of good health and hygiene practices, our employees curated an in-house program at two government schools as part of the summer camp run by our NGO partner, Colours of Life. 6 Embassy employee volunteers implemented the program based around two themes: the importance of brushing and the right kinds of food for to maintain good dental hygiene. With a total student strength of 70, each volunteer took on a small group of kids to lead them through activities followed by a discussion on what they learned and ended the program with a distribution of a toothbrush and a toothpaste to each child.
Embassy hosted 85 students from Colours of Life Academy for a day at Embassy Manyata Business Park. The students, who are alumni of government schools receiving vocational mentoring, were given a full tour of the park’s training facilities by Embassy Services, as well as career advice and guidance.
