EQ India’s CSR initiative boosts GTR School infra development
CHENNAI: EQ India, the global competency centre of the UK’s largest and US’s second largest share registrar, has announced the successful completion of their recent Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative focused on infrastructure development at GTR Higher Secondary School in Hasanur, Tamil Nadu.
The event was inaugurated by Anand Ramakrishnan, Managing Director of EQ India, in the presence of the school’s headmaster P Balakrishnan, and Gunasekaran, Founder, Owl Trust (NGO).
The project involved renovating the school including the installation of asbestos roofing to improve insulation and comfort in classrooms, the construction of a new gate and arch to enhance school security and visual appeal, and the painting of classrooms to create a more vibrant and inspiring learning environment for the children.
Identified through careful evaluation by EQ India’s CSR committee, GTR Higher Secondary School was chosen due to the urgent need for improved facilities to create a more conducive learning environment for students.
“At EQ India, we are committed to giving back to the communities in which we operate, particularly by supporting initiatives that improve educational facilities,” said Anand Ramakrishnan, Managing Director, EQ India.
“By addressing the specific needs of GTR Higher Secondary School, we aim to create a more welcoming, comfortable, and secure space that fosters a positive learning experience for children. This project is to empower future generations,” he added further.
