Sai Life Sciences Sustainability Report 2021

63 Provide education and create a livelihood for 1500 people from financially and socially less privileged communities through our CSR programs Provide free medical screening to 10,000 people through our healthcare programs. Sustainability momentum in CSR Building relationships with local communities Being a “Neighbour of Choice” for us means ensuring that the people in our local communities benefit from the social development that we undertake. Strong relationships with our communities in the key areas that we are active in are indispensable for our business operations and our success. We partner with organizations that will help us achieve our goals to improve health and education and increase livelihood to support community resilience. During the year, many of our existing programs were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as schools remained shut, and social restrictions limited physical contact and visits to our local communities. It has therefore been imperative for us to work with partners to extend support where it is needed most. We supported local governments and frontline workers in their sanitation efforts and with PPE and continued our partnership with LVPEI to set up a new eye center to promote community eye health. We partnered with the Adhyayan foundation to promote education and mentorship to underprivileged children and partnered with Roshni trust to promote community mental health.
