Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, has organised a substantial blanket distribution drive to help underprivileged children survive the harsh winter season in New Delhi.
This initiative, which is the first conducted by the airline in India, was organised in association with Monyati Initiatives, an India-based non-profit social development organisation, along with Ammucare Charitable Trust.
Blankets and warm food parcels were distributed to three shelters housing orphans and abandoned street children, as well as to farmers and their families, day labourers and the city’s destitute street people.
Neerja Bhatia, Etihad Airways’ General Manager in India, said: “We are delighted to work again with Monyati initiatives and hope we have managed to ease the burden of New Delhi’s underprivileged community and helped them withstand the cold weather.”
